[Digikam-users] AMD deciding _now_ what to do about Linux

[Martin Schmettow]

Hi Dotan,

it is remarkable, that you got an answer from someone who's actually 
informed of political decision processes at AMD.
I'd like to follow your example. Thus, it would be helpful if you 
provided the email address or specific web address to post to.

Thanks,
Martin.
