Hi all :)

I'm sorry if I've been raw because of an honest opinion.

I'll give a statement that's a little bit off topic.

Maybe there are some people out there that will help e.g. the poor
without receiving anything from them and it might be possible that some
of those people will use Linux without giving back the community
anything, anyway this would be a cycle of giving and receiving.

Cheers,
Ralf
