Thanx for the photos.  I have been trying to see how AsiaLinux and 
RedFlag "look like", but no one seemed to be able to locate a copy (even 
in China).  It appears that Fedora has become the de facto Linux 
standard distro, at least as far as the Chinese-speaking developer 
communities are concerned; this has made Novell very nervous.

Despite all the recent rosy talks and an overheated economy buoyed by 
the close to one trillion US dollars of cash reserve (which also 
increases by more than $100B or so every six months), China is still 
largely a very backward country.  Some of the things that HOSEF is 
doing, could be of great interests to Chinese officials, especially with 
respect to their "Go West" policy.  Again, thanks for posting those 
photos.  Wayne
