It was a very constructive discussion, and hopefully we can follow quickly with a just as constructive and productive integration. </p> <p> I'll report back to this blog once there is some visible result in terms of 'show me the code'. </p>linuxsamsunghttps://laforge.gnumonks.org/blog/20090927-one_week_with_ben_dooks_at_samsung/Sat, 26 Sep 2009 19:00:00 GMT
