Free-software guru meets Indian president

Finally I see something different coming from news related to New Delhi. The Free Software Foundation founder, Richard Stallman met India's president A.P.J. Abdul Kalam to discuss "the ethical issues related to the use of proprietary software". Kalam had spoken out in favor of open source intiatives and the need for India to get out of proprietary software solutions. Its nice to see that we finally have a president who understands technology and has the ability to voice out concerns related to it. Kalam, before becoming president headed the evolution of ISRO’s (India's NASA) launch vehicle programmeand later took up the responsibility of developing Indigenous Guided Missiles at Defence Research and Development Organisation as the Chief Executive of Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme (IGMDP). In India he is synonymous with missle technology and making India part of the 'nuclear club'.
