Free Software ist just great: I got an e-mail from a fellow in Pakistan, just thanking me for udp-broadcast-relay, a very small tool that lets UDP broadcast cross IP subnet boundaries. He writes that, after dividing his net, he needed that tool to keep vyqchat working. He also replied when I asked him to tell me a bit more about his setting, telling me that he uses Mandrake and Fedora Core and some personal details.
While this was not the first time something like this happened - someone from Norway once called me one Sunday morning, and I got mails from the US - but Pakistan is really a surpise to me. Also considering that I just released two versions two years ago and didn't do anything since...
Have something to say? You can post a comment by sending an e-Mail to me at <mail@joachim-breitner.de>, and I will include it here.
