Special Screening of "Revolution OS"

[David Oshiro]

Aloha Linux Users,

I am the managing editor for Hawaiian Hard Drive and we have been talking
with the Hawaii International Film Festival about a documentary on Linux and
Open Source. The film is called "Revolution OS" and has been presented at
Expos and a few film festivals. The reviews have been quite good and I am
certainly interested in viewing it. We will be sponsoring this movie at the
upcoming HIFF in early November and wanted to get your opinions on this
movie. We'd also like to get some feedback from the Linux community on how
Hawaiian Hard Drive can help spread the word and inform the public on Linux
and open source.

George Toft and Deven Phillips both write for Hawaiian Hard Drive every
month and are our Linux advisors. Companies like Viata and Hoala Greevy
specialize in Linux and open source in Hawaii and we would like to find out
what other companies and individuals are actively supporting Linux.

Please send me your feedback on this movie and any other thoughts you may
have about Linux in Hawaii.

Thank you.

David Oshiro
