Title: New OpenSource OS from Asia
Post by: asian1 on August 31, 2003, 07:11:07 PM

Hello
Japan, China and South Korea had announced a
plan to create new Open Source OS based on Asian
languages.
Will this effort suceed or bog down by rivalry,
hatred, corruption or bureaucracy?

/me puts a bet down on it being vapourware :-)

... well, not until Japan, China and South Korea have received a bribe containing lots of MS software...

The Asian version of Linux vs Microsoft?

Anybody who competes with ms is OK in my book.
They need something more similar to their indigenous languages.
  I'd hate to operate AOS in Chinese!
