The history of civilization - demonstrates the fragile nature of freedom. It can be lost in a moment, - and once lost, the cost of recovering liberty can be incredible. The last - edition cover featured Alfred the Great who liberated England from the - constant assault of Vikings and Norsemen. Events in England that - finally liberated the common people came about in small steps, but - the result should not be under-estimated. Today, as always, freedom and - liberty are seldom appreciated until they are lost. If we can not quantify - what is the value of freedom, we shall be little motivated to protect it. - </para> - - <para> - <emphasis>Samba-3 by Example Cover Artwork:</emphasis> The British houses - of parliament are a symbol of the Westminster system of government. This form - of government permits the people to govern themselves at the lowest level, yet - it provides for courts of appeal that are designed to protect freedom and to - hold back all forces of tyranny. The clock is a pertinent symbol of the - importance of time and place. - </para> - - <para> - The information technology industry is being challenged by the imposition of - new laws, hostile litigation, and the imposition of significant constraint - of practice that threatens to remove the freedom to develop and deploy open - source software solutions. Samba is a software solution that epitomizes freedom - of choice in network interoperability for Microsoft Windows clients. - </para> - - <para> - I hope you will take the time needed to deploy it well, and that you may realize - the greatest benefits that may be obtained. You are free to use it in ways never - considered, but in doing so there may be some obstacles. Every obstacle that is - overcome adds to the freedom you can enjoy. Use Samba well, and it will serve - you well. - </para> - -</preface> |
