Re: GNOME Speakers & Freebies

[Frederic Muller <fredm gnome org>]

Hi!

I did find the temporary schedule which happens to be blocked where I 
live (unfortunate - maybe only temporary).

I am surprised to see that you did not understand that GNOME is a Free 
Software project and that you (your organization?) systematically remove 
any reference to free software. As an example in your introduction of 
Koha (the schedule is also a good example of that from my perspective).

From your conference website (http://www.mosc.my/koha):
"Koha is the first open-source Integrated Library System (ILS). In use 
worldwide, its development is steered by a growing community of 
libraries collaborating to achieve their technology goals."


From Koha Webiste (http://koha-community.org/):
"Koha is the first free and open source software library automation 
package (ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types 
and sizes, volunteers, and support companies from around the world."

I believe that if you want to cooperate with the GNOME foundation and 
the GNOME people you will need to make a few efforts.

At this point I don't have much more positive comments, so I keep them 
for myself ;-)

Fred
