Linux-Community at LinuxTag

Free software would be unthinkable without developers' and users' dedication and community spirit. LinuxTag is part of this movement, and is committed to supporting the free software community and its many projects. That is why LinuxTag has become the meeting-place for project representatives, user-group members, and the companies, administrators and users who apply free software.

The renowned GNU/Linux community is the core force for the continuing development of free software. This community ensures the propagation and progress of the free GNU/Linux operating system and the free software development that builds on it.
