Hey All, Adam Beecher kindly set us up the Wiki. Now all your WikiWords belong to us. It's at http://beecher.net/scripts/phpwiki/index.php/HomePage I've added some stuff to it and I'd like to see people agree/disagree with it and change it around. I'm not allowed to send mail from my server and am greatful for Adam stepping into the breach and providing hosting. If I knew stuff about DNS I'd probably add another sentance about DNS pointers, but I dont:)
I'm not sure how we want to go forward with our web presence, but I'd like to see us with a sub-site from fsfeurope.org and hosting all our business from there. Again who agrees/disagrees with this? Though I like the idea of a .ie to give us a more national focus. Whats the Irish for Free Software? Could we get $(Irish_for_Free_Software).ie? I know I'm always banging on about translations into Irish, but it will be important when governent software is required to be bi-lingual (like in most other EU contries). Maybe we can encourage students from Irish language studies to do thesis on Irish language and computers. - -- Thanks, Aidan Delaney - -- If anyone has both the right and the need to study the code and be assured of its correct functioning, it is users. -- Whitfield Diffie Checksums of bad data tell you only: "yup, that's exactly the same bad data the other guy has" -- Tom Lord

fsfeurope aren't too keen on this. The france.fsfeurope.org site exists due to a disagreement on this issue at the beginning. The general plan is to help set up national software freedom groups and band them together on European issues.

soghluaistesaor.ie? (pig Gaelic, don't quote me on it)
How about an acronym, that we can give an english and an Irish meaning to?

I know I'm always banging on about translations into Irish,
It would be a good feather in our cap if we ever look for funding.
Sounds like an interesting idea. If you need help with the domain registration etc., let us know.
