In reply to: A note on language by pjm
Parent article: 50,000 Linux desktops deployed in Brazil

Oh, if Brazilian legalese provides that bribe acceptors should be shot then the language is perfectly correct; OTOH having read recent Linux.com article from Brazil developers on actually not-so-shiny affairs with free software in the country, I doubt it's really so.

Generally, if Mr. Khimenko meant "should have their legs shot off", I would rather concur :-]

PS: I don't know _facts_ on this one but have rather strong suspicion based on the way decision-making is largely performed in Russia (I live in Ukraine -- here too) and being never confident in "accidents".
