Good afternoon everyone,

I trust we are all in good health despite the effects of the COVID
pandemic.  It has been silent on this mailing list for a long time.  I
am curious about other subscribers.  Are you still there?  How about an
exchange to excite our servers?  My name is Onyeibo.  I am an
open-source person.

I contribute to the Fedora Project.  I use the product as well (i.e.
Fedora Linux, Rawhide edition). I am enthusiastic to see the widespread
adoption of open-source tools in Nigeria.  Has anyone else noticed that
open-source tools are mostly absent in our school curricula?  Is it
that boring?  Perhaps, our people are not yet seeing how much they are
missing out.

I still try to convince people to prefer open-source tools.   Nigerians
are particularly hard to convince.  That is my opinion, of course.
Perhaps, others on this list may have a different experience.  What is
your story?  How do we get our people to embrace open-source
ideologies?  The world is evolving around us.  The sooner we grab
liberating tools, the better for all of us.

Eager to hear from everyone.

Onyeibo
