Welcome to the LinuxFocus September/October 2002 issue |
In July, some members of the LinuxFocus team were at the
Libre Software Meeting
in Bordeaux (France). This meeting seems to improve through
the time. This year, a new important topic has been added:
computer security. It was a successful attempt since many people
attended the conferences. Most of the contributors were well
known in the security field: you can check the list at this
URL. However, in the real world, computer security stays rather
confidential, since a vast majority of users, either professional or
not, do not really understand the challenge it represents.
An example
comes from France, where a magazine dedicated to security called MISC has been launched about a year ago
and will probably have to stop its publication due to lack of readers. It is
a pity since it was providing very high quality information. But the LSM
was not only focusing on security. All the usual topics were represented:
documentation, programming, communication, etc. For instance, the Linux Documentation Project announced
its reorganization by language teams.
Another very important topic that
cannot be ignored was present: free software for visually impaired
people.
