Yes I know, but they are not using it on there own pc's. I have been in
contact with a lot of people in oxfam stores who have never heard of
foss, here and there a manager of a communal store who is interested,
but they all point me to Oxfam Belgium for real adoption. Lets not
forget that "de wereld winkel" is not managed by the same persons as the
people who put foss on pc's.
Me as a single individual will not have any impact on oxfam belgium
"wereldwinkels". But an organisation or company may.
Kind regards
Jürgen
