In which case there is nothing in main, by your definition,
since myanmar (previously Burma) has made Linux illegal (since the
rebels use linux and pgp to hide activities from the government.
Local, parocial rules _anywhere_ on this planet deciding what
is main is rather silly. Personally, I would rather not be governed
by what lcal regimes dictate as being acceptable (think libya, iraq,
afganistan, or your favourite police state).
