So for me it's absolutely clear I'd rather have no solution than a proprietary one.

I only wanted to issue my concerns, though. I'm not going to make you delete your *.mp3 and *.doc and *.wmv

BTW, I didn't know that all free HWR projects are dead? I don't have the slightest idea about this kind of software, but when Google returned promising results on "handwriting recognition gpl", I thought it's only a matter of a few fin(n)ish(ing) touches. Well, it's a cruel world.
