Beg to differ on the implementation of the idea wonly... Like Pandurang Shastri Athavale once mentioned in Japan (during the world religious conference or something), we don't have a tradition of self praise (& unless the things have drastically in last 60 years)... so why don't we write about others who we think are doing good work and encourage the actual doer's to say a little bit once the name gets nominated by others than themselves! This will atleast help PuneLug compile a list of people who are actively contributing and then take the next logical step... that of finding out people who are not doing the talk (something equivalent of **talking the walk**)... Anyatha... अगोदरच पुण्यातील लोकांना स्वतःबद्दल फारसे बरेवाईट बोललेलं आवडत नाही, त्यांच्यावर ही बळजवरीच ठरेल :-) -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
