Thanks We shall definitely take up the positive things from that. Let me also bring into notice, any prominent FOSS project/ initiatives primarily relies on handful of Full time people, with the community revolving around them. It can be FSF (It has RMS "full-time"), Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, KDE, GNOME. And they succeed. Do we have a set-up of such for any FOSS initiatives in India? NRCFOSS and then? I hope IETF too have few people who work for it full time. -- ஆமாச்சு _______________________________________________ network mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.in
