Namaste Janak Bhai,

 

Probably final words from me as i just wanted to correct your

misunderstanding.

 

what Mitesh meant (if i understood correctly) was not about the

sharing of knowledge but Sharing of Joyfullness. i don't think that

he also will have any dispute about sharing of knowledge.

 

don't correct me if i amnt wrong ;-)

 

warm reagards,

 

utpal
