I said we share a vision and it essentially means just that ,we are not RMS fan
club(unless you are trying to make one out of this group).RMS is of course our
source of inspiration but we are not concerned about his every activity.(Like
if he hates W. bush or loves him, is not a matter of our concern).Of course
when he comes to India and talks about free software listening to it might
benefit us.That is why we are willing to go to Trivendrum.But certainly we do
not want any lectures on world politics from him.

But before you added these lines your earlier mail was nothing at all related
to GNU/Linux.But i must tell you, even these lines doesn't justify the purpose
of your earlier mail.
Finally no matter how much these people at WSF shout they have done no help to
poor except some lectures on ANTI-GLOBALISATION.today i see, former US sec. of
external affairs(may be i do not remember the designation) ridiculing US govt
policies but when he was in power himself loved to play god..consipring
assassinations.Even A.Roy writes(DO TURKEY ENJOY THANKSGIVING..the hindu)..

And those without power has to raise thier heads so that people can know they
do exist..
The arguments can go on the relevance of WSF and whether we should welcome
globalisation or ridicule it..there are pros and cons to be discussed..But i
believe that certainly this is not the correct platform to do so..
And that was puspose of my earlier mail..but it seems that you missed the point
completely..
PS:i do read newspapers Vijay and i guess i spent more time on it than you
(ET,HINDU,BUSSINESS LINE,TOI)..Nothing personal..but this is perhaps true..
