I think we just have missed this one, thanks for noticing. If you happen to find some other places this changes haven't been made yet don't hesitate to mention them.

Commerical relates to commerce, where you trade something (money) for something else (software). So the opposite of commercial would be "free beer". Selling public domain software on a CD is a commercial activity. Proprietary means it is owned by someone or something and its use is restricted by the owner. The opposite of proprietary could be "free speech". Giving away software to certain people but then saying only they can use the software and in a certain way you specify is a proprietary activity. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Chinese big5 encoding and PO files
Hi, there are trouble with big5 encoding in PO files, because some backslashes are not escaped (e.g. MailingLists/subscribe.wml cannot be processed). Maybe fix_big5.pl should be run against those PO files so that MO files contain escaped backslashes? But I am not sure that encoding is then still valid, could a Chinese translator investigate this issue? Denis

suggestion: make Debian Guide available on web site
A suggestion: Make the Debian Guide Available on line. The page at http://www.debian.org/doc/ has a "Debian Guide" link to http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#guide. That has a link to the Debian package description, but there doesn't seem to be any on-line version. Daniel -- Daniel Barclay [EMAIL PROTECTED]
