Hi

Something is not working right. A long time ago I unsubscribed myself 
from all the SAKAI mailing list. Suddenly I am back on the mailing list 
and start receiving lots of e-mail again.

Could you please check what changes you guys made that is causing this?

Thanks

Javed Alam

"The Information Age offers much to mankind, and I would like to think 
that we will rise to the challenges it presents. But it is vital to 
remember that information--- in the sense of raw data--- is not 
knowledge, that knowledge is not wisdom, and that wisdom is not 
foresight. But information is the first essential step to all of these."

- Arthur C. Clark
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

"Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be 
their own governors, must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives. 
A popular government without popular information or the means of 
acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy or perhaps both."
