In short Rony's solution of forgetting about users not pissed off with doze is the simple workable option.
Many a times it is the users who piss me off and I feel they really don't deserve FOSS. Youngsters seem to be more receptive to new ideologies than the older ones. However *all* my customers know about the concept of freedom, privacy of data and why FOSS is slim, trim and virus free. Ever since I came to know how POSIX is a necessary standard, they are given a briefing on that too. Finally they have to decide their path. Every time there is a problem in doze, I keep reminding them that this would not have happened if they used FOSS.
Prolly,if they see you around regularly,they might remember to ask you
about
"that FOSS thing you keep talking about" :)This is just a random thought,because I honestly don't know how frequently your users see/meet you.
They hardly see me because as a service provider, it is my responsibility to keep their systems up and running with minimum breakdowns. I cannot be in many places at the same time so their systems have to be running smoothly.
Most of them are enterprise people?
