How and why contributing to FOSS can benefit your organization
,----[ Quote ]
| At first glance, the ecosystem in the Free
| and Open Source Software (FOSS) world can
| seem a bit complicated. There are several
| ways to get software: project websites
| where you can download it directly, use a
| software management tool that your Linux
| distribution provides, or you may also be
| able to install a Linux distribution that
| includes everything you need right out of
| the box! Once you understand this
| ecosystem, you can find where your
| contributions would be most useful, and why
| contributing is beneficial to your
| organization and the FOSS community.
