*** Proposal for a FLOSS/Linux Political Party ***
Sid - may I repost this in The Shed? (uk.rec.sheds)
Such an idea needs airing in public rather than a closed list if anything at all [1] is to come of it.
[1] by 'anything', I mean politicians taking some notice, not necessarily the actual formation of a party.
As an FLOSS idea, I welcome copying and improving (anti-SPAM and virus policy) the document. Perhaps the party could have an honarary President like RMS, Linus or Alan Cox. I forgot to mention setting up a party involves 3 people signing some forms and a start up fee of 150 pounds. I can imagine Tux or GNU on the ballot paper now.
