I signed up for the list.

What kind of contacts do you need? I can be your man on the ground in
Haifa, but to be honest, I really don't know much beyond the Fedora
and Kubuntu GUIs in KDE. That said, I have helped a few people switch
from Windows to Linux and I am familiar with most of the issues
regarding such a switch in general and specific to Israel. I can help
with installations and configuration of KDE including Hebrew GUI,
consulting for end-users considering switching to Linux, and data
migration from Windows. Note that is migration, not dual-boot, which I
discourage.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
