Re: [FWD] Free posters: promote Open Standards
I do not know - I got this from a British mailing list, which is related to Linux, and to which I am subscribed. As long as the ideal of promoting Open Standards is noble one, and relevant also for Israel, who cares who is Stephen Fry? And about the posters - if their copyright allows this (I didn't look closely into it), why can't anyone, interested in the promotion, adapt them for Israel (Hebrew+dates), printing our own copies?

Re: [FWD] Free posters: promote Open Standards
Stephen Fry is a famous British comedian and actor. One of his famous roles is Jeeves (the butler of young Hugh Laurie's Wooster), and he played in many other movies and TV series (lately V for Vendetta, IIRC). In the UK he is also recognized as a columnist.

I guess that yes - other then the English text, the date, and the huge photo of an actor that (almost) nobody in Israel recognizes, everything else in these posters is relevant to us in Israel :-) -- Nadav Har'El| Wednesday, Mar 21 2012, n...@math.technion.ac.il |- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |Anyone who quotes me in their sig is an http://nadav.harel.org.il |idiot. -- Rusty Russell's sig. ___ Discussions mailing list Discussions@hamakor.org.il http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discussions
