to wait until BhBhogi to throw out those dirty licenses, but it would be a good sysymbolisation and pave way for free software.

Someone has already asked for the itinerary of RMS and I am sure ArArun would post it when ready. Please note that I only wrote about the spirit that prevails in India at that time of the year. For a long time, I thought that popongaln PoPongal was just what we eat after the rice is cooked with milk and jajaggeryn a new pot until it overflows and offered to the sun along with sugarcane. Please read what Chantal BoBoulanger Tom DaDawberad to say about the PoPongalin their book titled "In the Kingdom of NaNataraja
<quote> ... their belief impregnate every part of their lives and come from the depths of their being and history. PoPongalthe most popular Dravidian ritual, is a "boiling-over", a symbol of life and fertility, and a way to thank the divine energy which swallowed their ancestors for mimillennia Here the pot contains the Energy, it means the over-flowing plenitude rather than the void." </quote>
The day before PoPongalwe have BhBhogiwhen, by tradition, all unwanted pots are broken up, and used clothing and others are burned up, to pave way for the new pots and things. Life is seen as a continuous renewal.
What better occasion could there be for doing away with proprietary lilicencesthat could be given a disposal at the time of BhBhogi RMS in this free sosofwareong has sung:
