Well done!  Plug the penguin, yah!  May linmagau flourish! :)

What interested me almost as much were links on those pages to these
stories:

Microsoft softens stance
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/02/24/1046063956552.html
  ("Microsoft and Linux evangelists called a truce in the
  open-source war last week for a seminar examining the use of open
  source by government agencies.")

Microsoft tool to help plug information leaks
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/02/24/1045935321595.html
  ("Microsoft Corp is planning to release technology that can be
  used to control access to content.  A media release said beta code
  for Windows Rights Management Services (RMS), a new technology for
  Windows Server 2003, would be 'broadly available in the second
  quarter of 2003.'")

Publish at your peril

  (about litigation against web content, ref. recent Aust case)
