LoCo Stories: the Asturian team drives the Asturian Language Academy migration to Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Spain has a rich language diversity. While the
| main official language is Spanish, there are
| several regions in which it coexists with
| others with the same or similar degrees of
| official recognition. These are Basque, spoken
| in the Basque Country; Catalan, spoken in
| Catalonia, the Valencian Community and the
| Balearic Islands; and Galician, spoken in
| Galicia.
|
| Asturian is yet another language spoken in
| the region of Asturies, in the North of Spain,
| and it is special in the sense that it does
| not enjoy official status but there is a
| regional law that contemplates its promotion
| and protection. However, this still means that
| there are no public or private initiatives to
| make it available in IT and the newer
| technologies.

| Now that the hype over â7â is declining, I
| expect GNU/Linux to continue rapid growth
| in share. Here, as far as I know, last year
| there was only one server loaded with
| GNU/Linux, sitting on a shelf. This year
| there are 40 PCs and servers running
| GNU/Linux and by next year, everyone in the
| community will know something about
| GNU/Linux. We could add another 20
| GNU/Linux PCs from Computers for Schools,
| and with luck, a bunch of thin clients if
| the budget comes through (expected this
| month). There might be only 1% share for
| that other OS in the school by the end of
| next year.

| As I wrote last week, Android's USP is openness. Although that means open to
| everyone, there is arguably an advantage to open source coding on the Android
| platform. For a start, the methodology that Android employs will be totally
| familiar, as will the idea of building on pre-existing code.
