For those interested in Free Software eBook Reader, I wanted to share the following information: "InLibroVeritas, the famous francophone free publisher (publishing particularly framabook books) offers to sell an electronic book reader. The 'e-Reader InLibroVeritas Opus', manufactured by french company Bookeen, is based on electronic ink technology, that is found especially among its competitor the Amazon Kindle. However, the e-Reader InLibroVeritas Opus stands out not only for its portability (with the standard USB mass storage, thus compatible with Microsoft, Mac, [GNU/]Linux and others), but also by its lack of DRM and its free [GNU/]Linux-based firmware . This reader, corresponding to the ideal of free culture has been naturally selected by the ILV publisher. The founder of ILV, Mathieu Pasquini, explains why they have thus made "the choice of supporting two French companies that have clearly opted for an open future, free software technology, free arts, going against the tide of global majors"." Translated approximately from french page at http://linuxfr.org/2010/05/08/26828.html. I browsed licenses in the source code and all is under GPLv2 or GPLv2+ ;) Christophe ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ gNewSense-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev -- Saludos/Greetings Quiliro Ordóñez 593(2)340 1517 / 593(9)821 8696 http://quiliro.wordpress.com/2010/04/28/cronica-de-un-contrato-con-el-estado-1/ Estas son opiniones personales y no representan la posición de ninguna organización.
