Does FSF-India want to continue the 'Boycott-Novell protest' by pasting posters over Novell posters and boards all over India?
Will FSF-India condemn the cpim hijack news that came in Mangalam and Newage Business ? The hijack view is expressed by many who are associated with FSF-India. Will FSF-India disassociate from such comments?
If FSF-India takes any decision on these, who all will be bounded by that? Can any one 'escape' the decision by representing any other group?
During the decision making who all will be heard in the process? How can FSF-India make sure that the communities' concerns at large can be addressed?
Regards, Haynes

Some individual has written some story about some organisation in some newspaper based on some kind of personal world-view. If it has provoked someone, wouldn't it be more prudent if the provoked person responded to the same newspaper and get issues clarified or refuted, so that its audience would get a second opinion. What has the reporter got to do with FSF-I or vice-versa ? "Newspaper's right" or "reporter's right" or "party's right" cannot take precedence over ordinary people's right on matters concerning freedom of public information and its processing. In my view, FSF-I should preferably continue to focus on these areas only. The other ones can be taken care by anyone amongst us who's got time and energy to spare. CK Raju
