hi,
agree with red1, such news is great promoter of FOSS.
suggestion: we collect all such news into a page of links to use as
reference material.
Could we also approach Min of Trade, to give us info on the 'cases'
that they have already 'summoned'. This will be useful statitics.
If we can work with Min of Trade, we dont need advert in paper!
We just need them to make a statement everytime they are in the news:
"This could have been avoided if they have used FOSS"
Perhaps Min of Trade can be our promoters ;-)
