[ilugd] Symbian not open-source anymore

2011-04-04 Thread Raj Mathur (राज माथुर)
Now Nokia has come out with a different spin on their licensing for 
Symbian, which removes it completely from the FOSS domain.  And I had so 
happily bought myself a Nokia/Symbian phone thinking, Chalo, at least 
the core OS is FOSS!  Very disappointing.

 Hi,

 Tirveni and I just completed a large (~2500 desktops + ~40 servers)
 installation of Debian -- Squeeze and Wheezy -- in 6 locations in
 India.  Was wondering, is anyone aware of larger or comparable Debian
 installations in the country?  Or should we be spraining our wrists
 trying to pat ourselves on our backs?


Hi,

This journey of ours came with its share of pains missed our daily siesta,
had to contend with rice,pulses,rajmas and rotis for lunch on most of the days.
And look at the result, a lady mentioned yesterday Tirveni has grown old.
Well! what do you expect, young lady? You grow old when you install 700+
systems in a single day, and  keep up with expectations of 20 systems in
ten minutes and no time to drink hot cup of tea and no dead animal to eat.

Where did my peaceful and quite life go?

Enough of the rant, Pointers to the help we got from the Internet:
