[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:15:33] <enigmastrat>       it doesn't work in IE

[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:03] <enigmastrat>       ha
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:12] <johnc4510> it works in firefox on windows though
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:16] <johnc4510> but
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:23] <johnc4510> we do need it to work in IE
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:25] <Wolf_45>   Question...
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:48] <johnc4510> a lot of folks would be using that before we get our hands on them
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:51] <johnc4510> HEE HEE
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:16:57] <johnc4510> Wolf_45 go

[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:17:53] <johnc4510> kk
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:17:53] <Wolf_45>   After the last meeting I was at, I "snagged" the team logo - would there be a problem with me sticking it on one of my own pages, and linking back to the team site?
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:17:55] <posingaspopular>   yes you do. i know you don't think so, but the majority of people use windows and non free software. if you want them to learn about OSS, they need to compare it to proprietary software and decide for themslelves.
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:17:57] <johnc4510> :)
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:18:05] <johnc4510> Wolf_45 you got a question?
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:18:17] <Wolf_45>   After the last meeting I was at, I "snagged" the team logo - would there be a problem with me sticking it on one of my own pages, and linking back to the team site?
[Sun Dec 2 2007] [21:18:18] <enigmastrat>       that was it
