Linux is a free "alternative" computer operating system
which is becoming increasingly popular in the server,
desktop and embeded environments.
Linux, and much of the software available for Linux are
known as "Open Source" products.
Open Source software is released under a license which grants:
* free (gratis; free as in price)
distribution of software, and
* free access (libre; free as in speech)
to the code behind the software
The class will be most likely be hands-on use of
PCs running Linux, and instructed by members of LUGOD.
The class is free, however space is limited.
