In addition, let's also start with PLUG's Linux distro for Desktops kasi
'yan ang in-need for the end-users.  Just like what the Q-Linux did.  A
distro that already has the StarOffice, KDE/Gnome, etc.

Siguro naman, if the government will support PLUG to develop this kind of
project, hindi lang mari-recognize ang PLUG as an Open Source Organization
in the Philippines but the organization will also gain funds and encourage
programmers to develop programs in Linux.

Mabuhay ang Open Source Community!  = )
