Linux -- Free Software, open standards, GNU/Linux

About Linux

Mailing list for questions, tips and discussions regarding Free Software and Open Standards in general.

GNU/Linux, OpenOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird, LaTeX, BibTeX, R, GNU/Octave, and all other software which grants the 4 freedoms are the main focus, independently of the operating system they are run on.

This list cannot guarantee support, but the community has hints for most questions on how to find more information.

News about FLOSS (free and libre open source software) are welcome. Occasional messages about like-minded topics (freedom of research, privacy, etc) accepted, too.

To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the Linux Archives. (The current archive is only available to the list members.)

Once confirmation is received, your request will be held for approval by the list moderator. You will be notified of the moderator's decision by email.

You may enter a privacy password below. This provides only mild security, but should prevent others from messing with your subscription. Do not use a valuable password as it will occasionally be emailed back to you in cleartext.
