[libreoffice-users] Egypt

Unbelievable news from Egypt!  

We work hard to help people, organisations, government departments and others 
communicate and give a new choice to help them do that.  Many of us live fairly 
comfortably in countries that at least pay "lip-service" to the notion of 
"Freedom of Speech".  Many of us see the struggle against proprietary formats 
and programs as part of pushing at the boundaries of our current freedoms.

Try pinging an Egyptian server today and you apparently get no response.  From 
12:34 am today the Egyptian government switched off the internet into or out of 
the country.  Some but not many satellite communications and some proxy servers 
are keeping a few things open.  Sms is down, twitter is down, facebook is down 
while outside Egypt we hardly notice any of it.

Lets hope more lives are not lost there!
Regards to all from
Tom
