I would love to - time permitting. Some of the projects we are implementing right now have half the cost and twice the performance using GNU/Linux (hint to win2k, wince & grenhills users). Infact many of the features are simply impossible with closed source tools. One multinational was on a road show in India pedalling their products. Imagine their shock when we demonstrated an identical but far simpler, secure and fool proof system using Debian and some embedded stuff. They had spent 3 YEARS v/s our 3 weeks. They had filed patents on some of the stuff and spent a fortune on lawyers (hint to guys trying to time limit usage and waste energy preventing their stuff from being copied) and we pointed out prior free software public knowledge. It was one of the most satisfying days of my life - forcing the ceo and r&d boss to acknowledge the absolute superiority of GNU/linux. Will they convert? I dont know yet.
And Lonavla sounds great, provided there is a good swimming pool ;-).
Afternoon JTD,
