I think this below is a good idea. Please leave a comment saying how often you try to use BBC web sites (I forgot) and don't feel pressured into donating to the hosting company if you don't want to.

Hello there,
The BBC's head of technology is claiming that only about 400-600 people use GNU/Linux to access the BBC, as part of their PR excercise glossing over how badly they've got it wrong with their M$-only iPlayer (see http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/08/15/1721229 and for background see http://tom.acrewoods.net/blog/2007/aug/bbc-corrupted-iplayer-protests-uk).
If you've used GNU/Linux to access the beeb, can you sign the petition below? Please circulate widely.
