Don,
Thank you for this. I have just wrote all three of my representatives. I
hope all of us will take the few minutes it takes to do this.
David

http://www.fcc.gov and LINUX exclusion
Hello Group;
I would like to request you to contact your State Representative, Senators
and the Federal Communication Commission Officers about a issue that is
causing ALL UNIX/Linux and Apple users a problem. It seems that the FCC has
chosen to exclude all NON Microshaft NT/95 users from being able to use
their Internet Universal Licensing System which they have requested FCC
Licenses holder to use for license renewals.
The problem is that it requires a JavaScript Plug-in that is a Microsoft
product only.
Simply go to "
http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls" and then select "ONLINE FILING".
I believe this to be the complete path to the failure. Which is "This
plug-in only runs on Windows NT/95".
We need to protect the finest operating system from being excluded from the
United States by our Government Officials.
