Good evening all, Ramon, your point is quite though the BSA are in Malta, and their being pushed by MS, i currently have taken over as system admin a medium/Large company locally, and they too have problems, i have suggested open office/libre office even though i am the marcon for OOo, i also tried offering support for ubuntu...
since ubuntu made thier so called "changes" and that wine does not accept hardlock keys, i was in a way being pushed to a corner, and when i discovered that their excel formulae's was dimensional and in a ways complex, that even "Microsoft"doesn't know about such formulae's work, libre office, and open office failed to even recognise it... that there was no alternative to most of their software, that would keep them on their current "system" unless they where ready for a large overhaul, that would cost and tax them more then sticking with their current "system" till the overhaul is complete... as for PR, i can say that i have that covered, i have some good contacts withen the ALLIED group, and also i am in good contact with some of our local home bred printers that are ready to assist us with flyers... On behalf of my brand and little inter-community, OSSMALTA is and will always be open to all, especially those that are doing good for the country. p.s (quite out of subject) i admit i have not really attended a meeting of mlug, as until now i have begun receiving the mlug-list, found it a bit of a pain to log in as my "open ids" seems not to work on the site, i would also like to extended my hand out to the mlug community, as a open-source supporter, and an ex ubuntu user (till they fix their big mistake), i would like to ask if its possible to discuss in a community meeting how we could use my "ossmalta.com" domain, to teach the general public about the OSS world in malta, one of them being the linux community which inspired my project in the first place. -- Warren Camilleri <[email protected]> Founding Member of The Open Source Society Malta community Mobile: +356 7991 2004 Skype: ossmalta | Twitter: @ossmalta ***************************************** _______________________________________________ MLUG-list mailing list [email protected] http://linux.org.mt/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-list
