By free we really mean OSS. Arun wrote those words. He used to run
BSD and even did a demo on it.
The OSS came after Arun & you started ILUG-Chennai. So, `By free'
Arun really meant the ideals as conveyed by the GNU Project of RMS.
I had come over to the IIT, in the first three months' of
ILUG-Chennai's formation. There was no OSS at that time. There was
only the IIT, a guy called Prabhu and another geek outside at Adayar
called Arun K.
Do you know when the Open Source Initiative was launched ? Prabhu,
it is time you give credit where it is due...... :)
