All you have to do is focus on technology. I don't agree with the above reasoning. If any technology, however superior, can not reach the people, I would consider it useless and worthless. Remember technology is for the benefit of mankind not the other way round. It is really sad that many people just talk of technology for technology's sack. The idea behind FOSS is to make technology available and accessible FREELY to people. The attitude of some people in FOSS, technology for the technology's sack, is hurting the FOSS, apart from many other reasons. > rgds > jtd My 0.02 rupee :-) With regards, -- --Dinesh Shah :-) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Shah Micro System +91-98213-11906 -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
