  • Sponsors Brochure
    Humboldt University Berlin, Germany 6-12 August 2011 Sponsors Brochure Welcome to the second Desktop Summit The Desktop Summit is a co-located event which features the yearly contributor conferences of the GNOME and KDE communities, GUADEC and Akademy. The conference will take place from 6-12 August 2011 in Berlin, Germany. The event will feature joint keynotes, talks and social events as well workshops and coding sessions. The Desktop Summit is organised by the GNOME Foundation and KDE e.V. GNOME and KDE have been cooperating in order to make choices and application development easier for end users, distributors and ISVs. An increased amount of technology is shared between the desktop, making cross-desktop application integration easier. By holding their annual developer flagship events in the same location, KDE and GNOME foster collaboration and discussion between their developer communities. The first Desktop Summit in 2009 was a huge success: 852 free software advocates from 46 countries gathered together to discuss and enhance the free desktop experience at the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit. The event accomplished its goal of increasing cooperation between GNOME and KDE to improve the Free Desktop experience. The aim of the Desktop Summit 2011 is to intensify this momentum and further advance collaboration between the KDE, GNOME and the rest of the Free Desktop and mobile open source community. It presents a unique opportunity for main actors to work together and improve the free and open source desktop for all. Join us to make this event a success! The Venue Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin is one of the leading research institutions enjoying an excellent international reputation.

  • Why Open Source Software / Free Software (OSS/FS, FLOSS, Or FOSS)? Look at the Numbers!
    Translations available: Czech | French | Japanese | Spanish Why Open Source Software / Free Software (OSS/FS, FLOSS, or FOSS)? Look at the Numbers! David A. Wheeler http://www.dwheeler.com/contactme.html Revised as of July 18, 2015 This paper (and its supporting database) provides quantitative data that, in many cases, using open source software / free software (abbreviated as OSS/FS, FLOSS, or FOSS) is a reasonable or even superior approach to using their proprietary competition according to various measures. This paper’s goal is to show that you should consider using OSS/FS when acquiring software. This paper examines popularity, reliability, performance, scalability, security, and total cost of ownership. It also has sections on non-quantitative issues, unnecessary fears, OSS/FS on the desktop, usage reports, governments and OSS/FS, other sites providing related information, and ends with some conclusions. An appendix gives more background information about OSS/FS. You can view this paper at http://www.dwheeler.com/oss_fs_why.html (HTML format). A short presentation (briefing) based on this paper is also available. Palm PDA users may wish to use Plucker to view this longer report. Old archived copies and a list of changes are also available. 1. Introduction Open Source Software / Free Software (aka OSS/FS), also described as Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS), has risen to great prominence. Briefly, FLOSS programs are programs whose licenses give users the freedom to run the program for any purpose, to study and modify the program, and to redistribute copies of either the original or modified program (without having to pay royalties to previous developers).

Publishable summary 1.1 Executive Summary In one sentence, ALERT is an open-source solution that helps developers stay focused on building better code. In a bit more detail, ALERT is a research project within the EC FP7 framework that aims to improve coordination, collaboration and bug resolution processes taking advantage from building a project knowledge base in collaborative or distributed environments by providing methods and tools for Software Development Companies, Open Source Communities and Developers as well. ALERT system revolves around 3 different key parts: - A distributed ALERT service system, which is a cloud based system that holds the main architecture and functionality of all ALERT’s components. - A set of “sensors” that are required to proxy between ALERT system and the multiple different data sources and tools that ALERT system uses to collect information from. - User Application that is the main interface where users interact with ALERT system. The project has built a system that enables creating an Interactive Environment with developers that frees developers from accessing multiple tools for one single task.

  • Praise for a Practical Guide to Ubuntu Linux ®
    Praise for A Practical Guide to Ubuntu Linux ® “I am so impressed by how Mark Sobell can approach a complex topic in such an understandable manner. His command examples are espe- cially useful in providing a novice (or even advanced) administrator with a cookbook on how to accomplish real-world tasks on Linux. He is truly an inspired technical writer!” —George Vish II Senior Education Consultant Hewlett-Packard Company “Overall, I think it’s a great, comprehensive Ubuntu book that’ll be a valuable resource for people of all technical levels.” —John Dong Ubuntu Forum Council Member Backports Team Leader “The JumpStart sections really offer a quick way to get things up and running, allowing you to dig into the details of his books later.” —Scott Mann Aztek Networks “Ubuntu is gaining popularity at the rate alcohol did during prohibition, and it’s great to see a well-known author write a book on the latest and greatest version. Not only does it contain Ubuntu-specific information, but it also touches on general computer-related topics, which will help the average computer user to better understand what’s going on in the background. Great work, Mark!” —Daniel R. Arfsten Pro/ENGINEER Drafter/Designer “I read a lot of Linux technical information every day, but I’m rarely impressed by tech books. I usually prefer online information sources instead. Mark Sobell’s books are a notable exception. They’re clearly written, technically accurate, comprehensive-and actually enjoyable to read.” —Matthew Miller Senior Systems Analyst/Administrator BU Linux Project Boston University Office of Information Technology “I would so love to be able to use this book to teach a class about not just Ubuntu or Linux but about computers in general.
