well when i attended the last Lug-meet an idea struck me back then when Prof.Nagarjun was explaining why its GNU/linux and not just linux. Also there was a nice response for the documentation and Gnoware cd's. what if we guys make a cd of GNU applications that run on windows,applications like open-office, the gimp etc... we can distribute this cd's which will effectively answer the question why its GNU/linux and also most of the people who use windows and are rather skeptical about Gnu-linux can get the feel of what its like.it will effectively solve their doubts and thus promote linux system. Just trying to contribute back DHANESH
I hate to burst your bubble. But someone else already had this idea before. Take a look at
GNUWin II http://gnuwin.epfl.ch/
and TheOpenCD http://www.theopencd.org/
Maybe you can help with localisation of GNUWin II.
