I actually converted and modified N. Deepak's Powerpoint slides to StarOffice 6.0 I got his permission and actually he's got a no-nonsense licensing policy, if you would call it a license. He states that you can do anything, (modify, change and even claim it as your own), although I included in the tar.gz N. Deepak's original README.
The slideshow is meant to be played with music and without a presentor because the content and words of the presentation are already in there. I modified his slides heavily to include certain things I felt were missing and concentrated on explaining more what is Open Source. You can find the tarball at: http://www.geocities.com/leenix2002/download.html Rene [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Paolo Falcone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've seen a real good presentation made by a certain > N.Deepak > (foreigner).
