OK, Folks ..
Just a little note on what has been written about Brazil ...
You guys surely must have heard about corruption here, but it doesn´t
mean that everyone is corrupt, and that every negotiation is a scam
here ...
Brazil is very serious about a lot of things, including our
participation in the open source scenario.
I am sure that a lot of countries are represented in this list, and I
am also sure that none is perfect! What if the world decided to cut
business with the US due to Bush´s politics?
Regards,
Carlos.
