Team, Truly. Its up to my neck now, seeing comments, telling me to make sure all to be in OSS even in conference, in my photos and things that I do as OSS advocate.
We are too into it and forget what the users think. From 301 people attending the MOSC2011 conference, I truly can see only us, the team in OSS community booth and a few more are using truly OS from OSS. and I felt wrong putting limits and condition to a sponsor. I'm the one that want Free for Freedom in software putting limit to people !!!. Feel so wrong doing it. That's sponsor a famous Malaysian Company support us for 3 years because they want to see the growth in our ICT industry. Issue related to anti-virus given to people sending their feed back form. Its a courtesy from a company that's want to say they support OSS Community. Yes they do sell proprietary software. The asset that they can share to show their support other then their software. In the field of security, any operating system subject to any attack. Its all depend how big resource they want to spend to create the trojan and what benefit they can get. Its not a promotion, its a sarcasm giving anti-virus to users in Open Source Conference. What do the users think? Infront of the feedback form counter we had a booth for OSS community to promote much better and safer Operating System. :) Even the Linux CD are given freely to them. Lets them make a choice. An extra cost to a already costly Ooperating system need to install anti-virus or just use free and safer operating system. The Anti-virus CD macam goreng pisang panas. Showing how users think about their current OS. Its all up to us the OSS community how to promote and take advantage of it. If we keep on thinking negative of all the effort thats we keep on going to get the interest of the usersto OSS, sampai bila-bila we will stuck will small numbers of OSS users. My 2 cents. -- To unsubscribe from and detail about this group http://portal.mosc.my/osdc-my-mailing-list-information Malaysia Open Source Conference 2011 MOSC2011 http://blog.mosc.my/ and http://www.mosc.my/ Malaysia Open Source Conference 2012 MOSC2012 http://portal.mosc.my/
