Packing FOSS

,----[ Quote ]
| Here’s the killer feature: FOSS Pack should be able to scan the user’s system 
| for proprietary applications. These are identified based on an internal list, 
| which also contains information on FOSS alternatives to those applications. 
| Those alternatives are presented for easy download and install.

Why Use Open-source Software?

,----[ Quote ]
| So this is why I find the open-source model superior to the closed-source 
| one, bot from the end user and programmer's point of view. It works, it is 
| safe and in many ways faster. You don't have to pay for it and this can be a 
| incredible plus when you embark in a business that uses computers. Cutting 
| costs should be a priority when trying to make money with software, and 
| open-source might just be the best answer.

In conversation with Adam Hyde

,----[ Quote ]
| This time around, Scott talks with Adam Hyde of FLOSS Manuals. In a 
| wide-ranging conversation, they talk about why Adam started the project, the 
| way in which FLOSS Manuals gets things done, Book Sprints, Adam’s thoughts on 
| the 80/20 rule, and more.
