[Ubuntu-be] ubuntu-be Digest, Vol 36, Issue 10

[Krist Vaesen]

In reply to "Company that promotes foss":

Hey ho,

my father in law is in the board of directors of Oxfam Belgium. I can 
ask him to put us in contact with the right person. I myself am a rather 
new ubuntu-user, so I will not be able to convince Oxfam. But you guys 
might...

I will come back to you if I have any news.

Krist
