Dave,

For IP if you like.

I suspect that there will be more news about this item; I just received it from a colleague by e-mail. It will be telling understand what motivated the attack and how it was focused, if it was.

Reply-To: bytesforall_readers () yahoogroups com

The attack at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, in which
Prof MC Puri of IIT Delhi was killed and Prof Vijay Chandru of IISc
(among others), injured, is condemnable.

Chandru is, of course, one of the prime movers behind the development
of the Simputer, for which all the original work was undertaken by
Chandru and Prof Manohar Swamy. I hope that Chandru comes through
this safely.
