Awake for almost 24 hours. Thoroughly reviewed the list of correspondence between languages and countries where they are official or commercially important in this (incomplete text version) for the third time in the cycle that started more than three months ago. It seems that me and Mark are finally converging to something good.

Had a company board meeting and the trans-company "free software council" meeting, trying to get the business plan for our customized Linux distribution approved and financed by the VC, but I am not very hopeful, really. Seems that they (the shareholders of the VC, that owns 30% of our company) are more interested in talking about and encouraging entrepreneurship than spending the real money they are making in North America here. Free advice, we're getting, but not the money to implement the same advice.
