Great News Anivar! Congratulations everybody! Kerela is becoming role model for the foss efforts and no doubt, the push by different organizations and vibrant FOSS Kerala community people like you are very much helpful in achieving the same. We should try to build similar foss eco-system in other parts of India also!

WTF?
We l10n people in india usually calls it as "Swathantra Software" (means
Libre/freedom Software) as reported in local language press. If you have
ambiguity with the word "free ". That is a problem in your understanding .
Please stop judging local contexts with mistaken understandings.
And In this part of the Glob we have all Govt and state aided Schools using
FOSS, Govt policies have specific mention about FOSS . Experiences like
this were state funds for an implementation partner to initiate migration .

Hi :)
This is all pretty fantastic! Congrats to anyone involved.
Please can we just drop all the threads that have an Urmas in them? Just
ignore the obvious FUD and avoid engaging.
If doing a migration with any kind of assessment of hardware requirements
or with any advice from almost anyone familiar with OpenSource then it's
highly likely that little or no new hardware needs to be bought except
where hand-helds are seen as more useful than a desktop.
Without guidance people might have ended up buying new kit but will soon
find that new kit lasts "forever". Staying with proprietary systems means
fairly frequent hardware upgrades just in order to keep doing the same
stuff. If people have upgraded to new hardware they will also begin to
realise they can bring the old stuff back into use, or give to worthy
causes such as those with charitable aims.
Regards from
Tom :)

It's not the first time Urmas is bashing random people on OSS mailing
lists (incl. LibO), and it's probably not the last time either. I
suggest to just ignore his crappy remarks.
Question to board members: I wonder, for how long will such behavior be
tolerated?
Rimas

I've transfered his first message to the Board for action. Such a
behavior can't be tolerated in our community.

Hi :)
Sadly the Board can't do much.
At best they can stop everyone else on the mailing list from seeing
whatever Urmas posts but they can't stop him/her from simply using "Reply
to" or "reply to all" to post off-list messages to anyone posting to the
list. It would take much for them to do something even more damaging
without the mailing list as a whole being aware of it. On another mailing
list Urmas has been accused of bullying people off-list.
The way the mailing lists used to be set-up was that using "Reply to" would
only go to the mailing list as a whole. So back then to send to an
individual meant you would first have to find and then copy&pasting an
email address into the "To" or CC" fields. That is all tooo complicated
for the average computer user so it gave a bit of security and meant things
like this could be dealt with fairly neatly.
Nowadays there is nothing we can do to make it difficult to send private
messages off-list. All we can do is to pretend we don't know that people
get bullied off-list when they register on our mailing lists :(
Given all that i would rather know what is being said so that we can
usually support people if they do get attacked as a result of signing up
for these mailing-lists.
Regards from
Tom :)

Oh, he/she is simply a debunker who works in the word processor area, he/she
is only trying to discredit LibreOffice (not only), maybe for personal reasons.
