On World Software Freedom Day today, here is a byte of reality
Sumangala Nayak, a social studies teacher at the Sampangiramnagar
Government High School in Bangalore, could barely operate a computer
until recently ? this, despite her school being part of the first
phase of the central government's ICT@schools programme in Karnataka.
Now, after going through a Free Software training camp, she is not
only computer literate but also declares proudly that she is quite
comfortable using a ?Free/Libre? GNU/Linux operating system, something
that many computer-savvy people wrongly perceive to be too technical
or out-of-bounds........
