    MS' IndiaDev center is developing some more apps, if you are interested.

    Hardcore app development wasn't India's biggest forte initially, but we're getting there.

  5. conspiracy? hardly. by sllort · · Score: 2 · on Harm From The Hague

    I thik that everyone is over reacting. This is not what everyone is saying, it is not so you can kill people in U.S. and use some Lichenstein Law to say "I didn't kill him". This treaty is so that all those countries will stop stealing our software.

    Now that the e-everything bubble has crashed and world has come to it's senses, software vendors are feeling the hurt.

    "Vietnam has the world's highest piracy rate at 97 per cent, China has 95 per cent"

    With numbers like that, can you blame the software business for wanting people to start paying for their products? Red China's idea of "buy the people, for the people" is great and all, but in America we have decided that you must pay for a product. And that is what this treaty is intended to do: help lawmakers get people to pay for a product.

    If they have failed to word this clearly, that is their fault, and if Stallman has blown it out of proportion - well, that is his fault. But please keep in mind that this treaty is intended to combat piracy, not create a illuminating conspiracy.

    Let's not Rush to judgement?
