Q: Do postings have to be Ireland specific?
Some of the recent postings, while interesting, are not obviously Ireland specific. I'm sure most of us belong to other lists where these issues repeatedly show up, so perhaps we should try to avoid them on this list.
Everyone who joined this list probably has a clear idea of what "free software" means to them and, for much of the work we might do, a definition along the lines of "GPL or similar or freer" might be acceptable.
These issues might become relevant, however, where we to try to promote the adoption or development of "free software" in Ireland.
Good luck,
Malcohol.
