[Fsfe-uk] The threat of a good example continued

[Steve Kehoe]

For those of you who missed this news item I would
like to direct you to the full English text of a reply
by a Peruvian Congressman David Villanueva Nuñez to
Microsoft Peru and its attempts to scare all and
sundry. This is on The Register at;-
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/25157.html
Read it all the way through as it is by far and away
one of the clearest and most cogently argued rebuttals
of MS FUD.
As well it presents a powerful case for Free Software
(free to use, study, modify & redistribute) in Public
Administration. So powerful in fact we should be using
the Puruvian example to draft our own such laws for
schools, hospitals, police, local authorities, etc.
wherever the Public Interest must be protected and
best served now and for the future.

Comments welcome, but first read the the Nuñez's text

Regards

Steve
