I started out using the Gnome dialer (Modem Monitor) but it was a little
bit flakey so I am using wvdial from the command line.

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.

The present need for security products far exceeds the number of
individuals capable of designing secure systems. Consequently,
industry has resorted to employing folks and purchasing "solutions"
from vendors that shouldn't be let near a project involving securing a
system.
