The religion fundamentalisms control the people and Obama isn't so diffenrent from this point of view. He's a mormon and mormons aren't so progressists.

]]> Comment on Sorry, it was a mistake by Roberto Galoppini http://www.italovignoli.org/2008/02/29/sorry-it-was-a-mistake/#comment-164 Roberto Galoppini Fri, 29 Feb 2008 18:45:42 +0000 http://www.italovignoli.org/?p=442#comment-164 I believe you're right Italo, an open source community is not a corporation. Furthermore PLIO is not an open source community, while it has a lot to do with our beloved OpenOffice.org community. PLIO is a non-profit voluntary association (ONLUS) with its own structure and rules. PLIO is funded by donations, has an Association Council and it is represented by its President, formerly the Italian Lang OOo Project maintainer, Davide Dozza. I believe we did a good job opening up the opportunity for PLIO to start a dialog on interoperability with Microsoft and possibly many other vendors (including Sun, Novell, IBM and Red Flag just to mention a few). At the same I think it is great time to step behind the scenes from now on, it is up to the association to eventually elaborate it further. Individually we might be just pigs toiling in the mud of uncertainty, but all together we are no less than a miracle! :) I believe you’re right Italo, an open source community is not a corporation.

Now it reads "we believe in your good faith more than the EC does", and better reflects the concept. Thanks to Stefano Maffulli for pointing out the mistake. Blogging in English is definitely challenging. I have amended the third paragraph of the “open letter”, which was a word by word translation from the Italian.

How can you trust Microsoft more than EC? The Italian version of the letter says something 'we believe in your good faith more than the EC does', it doesn't talk about trusting more one over another. Please correct this text before it spreads further and offends our allies in Bruxelles. WOW! How can you trust Microsoft more than EC?
