It has been a wild day for friends of FOSS. This past weekend was the opening of qualifications for this year's Indianapolis 500 race; a venue where Linux can introduce itself to much of the world. 22 cars are now qualified, and 11 spots remain open in the field. Today also marks the beginning of active warfare on the Open Source community by none other than Microsoft.

I mean, I don't even know the guy. Project partner...? You must be thinking of ANOTHER Bob Moore. Why, this guy,...? I've got no clue, I mean I've never even.....

Welcome to the LXer Leper Lair Bob. Make yourself comfortable. Kick your shoes off...and oh, ummm, make sure your feet aren't still in them when you do. We misfits, criminals and general band-of-no-good-scofflaws like it here.

Moore hits it on the head here folks. The sad part is that those who are fighting or abstaining from this effort are doing it for all the wrong reasons. Hopefully, (and there may be a surprise "guest" join our ranks) we will make a big push for the finish line. The dreaded deadline looms. I want those who haven't had a chance to yet say hi to Bob. This guy is the real deal and he even shoots commercials.

I don't think he's asking money for his autographs yet...

OK, I gave. I really think the campaign is being done right.

So when do animated ads come to Indianapolis 500? (This marketroids favorite is guaranteed to make me not buy their product. Nothing shall move on my computer screen! (Or at least give me the option to turn it off.))

I just looked at "At The Track" http://tux500.com/geeklog/mediagallery/album.php?aid=1&page=... photo gallery. It really shows off well what is being done. I especially like the logo in multiple places.

The gallery software is also nicely done, easy to control.

The colors look great, I think.
