Open World Forum releases the 2020 FLOSS Roadmap

,----[ Quote ]
| The Open World Forum (OWF) is an international organization based in Paris, 
| France. OWF organized an event in December 2008 which brought together people 
| from across the FLOSS spectrum: programmers, advocates, corporate and small 
| business users, hobbyists, academics and investors. OWF’s focus is the future 
| of information technology within the context of the FLOSS revolution. One 
| significant outcome of the 2008 event was the culmination of strategic, 
| tactical and political discussions in the form of a roadmap through the year 
| 2020.

All Russian Schools to Use Free Software

,----[ Quote ]
| I've often lamented how few schools in the UK use free software, and how
| difficult it is to break the lock that Microsoft has on the entire
| educational system. The pathetic state here is highlighted by contrast with
| Russia, which is making amazing strides in rolling out open source to
| schools.
