Actually... point was to be more inclusive.. we can narrow the focus... just easier to get what you want if everyone is working towards the same goal.

I think he is spot on.  I sa Open Source Fair is my best so far.  Chris
said something about Proprietary software being shown.  Is there some
proprietary software that there is some reason we should expect to be
shown?  There may be and that is why I ask?  Or, do you think the
Windows guys would be put off by Open Source, since Bill Gates dislikes
the GPL so much?
Good day,
Ralph
