He surely has, which is precisely why I asked the gentleman whether he was was speaking on behalf of the Ubuntu Foundation when he objected to the name change to align this proposed TC with the interop requirements laid down by eGov in the E.U. My concern was that Mr. Shuttleworth's and the Ubuntu organization's reputations might be injured if a Ubuntu representative was saying things that could blow back on them. I am well aware of Mr. Shuttleworth's commitment to interoperability and open standards. Had that been the case, I would have alerted Mr. Shuttleworth. I have nothing but respect for Mr. Shuttleworth's work and that of the Unbutu organization. > If you'll excuse the completely shameless plugs, No excuse required. Plug away! Those of use who hang out on the EUG-LUG mailing list plug Ubuntu products shamelessly. :-) Best regards, Paul -- Universal Interoperability Council <http:www.universal-interop-council.org>
