Dear Sasi,
Today's Hindu carries a *story* by Anand Parthasarathy. AP seems to be spreading a
message that "vulnerability of Free Software" is easily derived through the
reported instances of "vulnerability of Firefox.exe".
Its a shame that people holding such responsible positions, still carry out such
propaganda.

Anand P has been doing whatever damage he can. Although his
understanding is very superficial, unfortunately, he commands a lot of
respect among journalists and lay people.

We need to find ways to give our responses. I have written once or twice
to the Hindu in response to his articles, but they have been ignored. I
am at a loss as to what we can do.

Best thing to do is to reply to them, send them to publish, whether

those who visit our website and search on the web will find our

Writing to the Hindu (both email and snail-mail) does not
work. I've tried this enough times., but no response. Maybe we
need contacts.

wont be of much use.. but the language would ask us to fetch the
dictionary.. may be someone could try..
