Recent AP article about Brazil (apologies to those for whom this is old news): http://www.yahoo.com/s/130581 http://www.siliconvalley.com/mld/siliconvalley/7277753.htm http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A48700-2003Nov16.html
It looks like Brazil's government has open source enthusiasts/proponents at the very top. The article also mentions the possibility of using open source software in Brazil's 400,000 electronic voting machines. I wonder how many voting machines are being made (by Korea?) for the Philippines and what software will be running on them. Also, whether there is anyone running a Linux or BSD computer at Malaca�ang. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
