Get Listed Free In Gov't Open Source Directory

BanJoota writes "Probably most useful for U.S. people, but sounds like a good deal. The story (at Newsforge) says you can list your Open Source business, non-profit group or Open Source project or whatever for free in a 'Who's Who and Who's Doing What in Open Source' book that's being distributed to government agencies on March 15. The deadline's March 1, so better act fast." Newsforge and Slashdot are both part of OSDN. Remember to keep your write-up suitable for pointy-headed managers...

    It's kinda weird that since 9/11 attack our president enacted the patriot act
    and homeland security. It's also strange that we are still plagued by shipments
    of heroin from Afghanistan.
    It would only take one small hit of heroin tainted with ebola virus or bubonic
    plague, etc. to wipe out lots of us.
    Yet, our Prez lets the stuff through our borders, on planes, trains, ships, and
    automobiles.
    Bush family evidentely has bought stock in afghani agriculture, (opium), since
    he decided not to
    interfere with Afghan's drug production.
    Do a Google search for 'CIA+opium'.

    I was just talking to a friend about how non-funny and obvious you could be and still get '5, Funny' here.

    Three more +1 moderations for you and I think we'll have our answer.

    (I also got the idea for a small competition: Lowest hamming-weight message posted anonymously to get '5,Funny'...)

    M$ crashed - again - two hours ago. I now run Knoppix from CD.

    As much as I thoroughly HATE and DESPISE M$, I cannot use Linux yet because my SuSe 90 (and Lindows, and Lycos) do not recognize my scanner and my modem, and because CUPS is terribly slow. Also M$'s software is better.

    So, here I go again, installing that utter crap again. I will now increase my backup frequency to once in three days.

    CALL TO LINUX COMMUNITY: YOHOOOO - WAKE UP and start making good software for Joe Sixpacks once. And plllleeeeeeeaaazzzz - try to 'finish' your software once. Do that - and I'm a Linux user!!!
