I saw your posting to LIG, the Linux-India list.

Probably there's some misunderstanding on how we operate. This is not a corporate organisation; it's a huge volunteer network.

Could you contact the Linuxers mailing list, which has a whole lot of GNU/Linux people in Mumbai active on it?

I'm based in Goa, and we have an active network here too. FN

------------------ Dear Sir,

I visited your site "linux-india". After reading about Linus, I would like to have more information on its compatibility with Application softwares developed in Oracle or Microsoft products, Accounting packages like Tally 5.4 etc.

We are a Housing Finance Comany with our head office at Mumbai, Fort. Tel Nos (22884986 / 22851766).

Presently we are using Novell Netware 4.2 as our operating system. We are now thinking of switching over to Windows NT. Since Linux is now becoming more and popular in the IT market, we would like to be guided on whether Linux will be more advantageous to our Company than Windows NT.

We would appreciate if you could send one of your Linux partners to meet us at our office and discuss the same.

You may send your reply to the following e-mail addresses

Thanks
