I was at the MSC Flagship Centre at Cyberjaya yesterday and found that
all the displays there were non-open source applications. So I enquired
about the status of the servers that MDC promised the open source
community. I was told that "the problem with the loosely organised open
source community is that things are rather slow to move as those
individuals have their own full time job".
Can someone associated with the project brief us on its current status?
It was disappointing to note that people within MDC are not impressed
with the commitment and progress made by the open source community.
Surely there is a time frame for the project to be up and running? The
new Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation was visiting the
place and there was nothing on open source for him to see. The "show" by
the proprietary softwares were impressive!
