[ilugd] [OT]Making business sense of Open Source/Free Software
Hi All The common question that many people not familiar with Open Source/Free software business model ask is - if a software is free and Open Source, how do the companies who are involved in Open Source SURVIVE (make profit!!)!!! I came across this wonderful blog which answers the above aptly and is the best that I have come across. The 'eight' attributes that makes OpenSource/Free software have business sense is worth having a look at, and understand. These are exactly the ones that makes Open Source profitable and successful. Wanted to share this in this forum. Check it out at: http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/kelly08/kelly08_index.html I am sure this article will make sense of the Open Source business!! - gunz ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

Re: [ilugd] Version control for /etc
I find the best mechanism to version control /etc is bzr (http://bazaar-vcs.org). All you need to do is to 'cd' to /etc and run 'bzr init'. From that point, you can start maintaining 'in-place' all the files under /etc. No separate repository needed. No 'CVS' directory in every subdirectory. Just keep adding the files to version control using 'bzr add' and get all the benefits of VCS. A simple 'bzr export' will give you a pristine copy to backup whenever you want it. - Sandip ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
