Your most welcome Patrick. EACOSS has limited resources/time the boys/girls do what they can. I think we as a community need to do more, we can use them as a vehicle/front, along with I-network and the private sector. This is too huge a task for any one of us to carry.

I was kind of hoping East African Center for Open Source Software (EACOSS) would spear head the trend from their website and related activities within Uganda at least. Not much word from there though!
