Keeping things working

"This is a classic problem in development: everybody wants to play the white knight coming to the rescue with the quick fix — the water pump, the $100 laptop, the motorcycle. But the tougher challenge is developing a cost-effective system to keep things working."

I like above quote. Matches observable reality.

FOSS.IN/2010

The FOSS.IN/2010 CFP is out. I highly recommend participating. I also suggest visiting Ooty, உதகமண்டலம் , but not via road, instead, take the steam train, Nilgiri Mountain Railway which is now a UNESCO World Heritage site.
