I first heard of the word 'Ubuntu' when I joined the Linux community. 'Ubuntu' was co-opted into the service of an open-source movement. I actually enjoyed the feeling of being part of a community of giving in that time. It was like a gift of an operating system to the world for the purpose of empowering all people to have access to information.
I like the ideas presented on the website link you provide. I guess in my older years I'm more inclined to be skeptical of utopian ideals. So I like the idea, but I don't want to be possessed by it. It is a worthy aim, but not the goal itself.
I am with you my friend, I like the idea very much, def dont want to jump in with arms in the air to soon, but im excited about this prospect. I feel good things about it and our future.
