<div dir="ltr"><div>The National Computer Board influences government policy. Pushing
for open source and open standards adoption for the greater good of the
community is part of LUGM's mission. LUGM will be more interested in
collaborating with the NCB than spend its resources on fixing the
slowness of defimedia, a company which has the resources to fix its
problems but apparently chooses not to. What I want to make clear is if any LUGM member wants to do
free or paid work for a company, they can do so but they can't do it
under LUGM's name and neither represent themselves as being "LUGM-approved", "LUGM-certified" etc.<br><br></div><div>If the defimedia webmaster wants
our help, s/he can join the mailing list/facebook group and ask
questions on how to fix their site and the LUGM members will help, like we do for everyone else. "Linux mauritius" on google shows
LUGM as the first hit so its not hard to figure out :-)<br><br></div><div>I
take this opportunity to pass on a reminder that we're all here to
advocate free software/open source and open standards. Personal attacks
don't make any of us look good in this mission.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jun 1, 2014 at 10:24 PM, selven <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pcthegreat@gmail.com" target="_blank">pcthegreat@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

@S Moonesamy ,sorry, that stinks. I highly appreciate your contribution to RFCs, but acting as a dumbass including your previous attempts in criticizing the .mu tld is simply a waste of time.<br>
