It's great that the Beeb are talking about OSS. I wish they'd talk more about Linux on "Click" and the news though. Some days they talk about Windows and Mac as if Linux doesnt exist. I think it's time to pile on the pressue. The BBC is a very left wing service, especially when compared to their American counterparts so I think Linux would fit in with their almost anti-american, anti-government reporting style. Maybe someone should post a bunch of free cd's to the Beeb and get the presence heard lol. Shuttleworth should organise an event for them to attend too or appear on the Breakfast program to talk about his space trip and really talk about Linux ;-)
