Yes, what we need is a lot of big leap, not moving slowly and be grateful, we are fallen way far behind!!!
And again, this word of 'Malaysianising' is stupid, it sounds like as long as we put some big sum of money, we can have Malaysia's flag imprinted? So, can we enjoy the glamour to fulfill our high ego requirement? But actually ignoring the real meaning of a software? To benefit people and ease our tasks so we can help more people? And about the VISTA Healthcare System Boh mentioned, it is developed by the US's department of Veterans Affair with primary goal is to help people, not to boost their reputation. Of course as long as you do things with a good intention, you will have good reputation sooner or later. And everyone from around the world is allowed and welcomed to join the development. Look at World VISTA and other branches, no, they are not advertised as a proud and glorified US's brand. And they are not evil Western products! So, do we want to develop one real useful softwares or a bunch costly, shortly glorified, Malaysian only Malaysian brand software that can fulfill our high requirement Malaysian egotism only for a short while? And show the world how shallow we are? And please, and again, do not abuse the name of FOSS, remember openness and Free for everybody! Malaysianising sounds more like proprietary ego shit to me! Can't we just put down everything, and work together? As humans!!! Think about the greater good, think about how much we can contribute to the world. Think, in neutral standing!!! Frankly, I don't think our government is!!! By the way, I'm a inexperience young lad who just wanted to follow the teaching of FOSS. I know I might be wrong, but I won't be much wrong than most of us. Helping is an addiction, sharing is caring. Regards, CL Chow "Please do not send me Microsoft Office/Apple iWork documents.
