Wether their website supports other browsers or not is a minor quibble. The real issue here is are they aware about Libre software. If they are they should have been using GNU software. Libre software is about keeping knowledge open and useable for the benefit of all. This is the only issue that is important. The opensource movement very convienently forgets this issue. The recent SCO shenanigans should be an eye opener. I havent as yet read the mag. Therfore my comments maybe way off. I intend to read it on Sunday. rgds jtdsouz(a)softhome.net

Hi, Somebody put a mail on how Open Source databases compete with the commercial one's on this list a few days ago. This story from CNN may add to the picture: http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/ptech/03/12/fortune.ff.open.source/index.html Amol Hatwar. It's most certainly GNU/Linux, and not Linux.
