Where .com Meets .org
LinuxTag is Europe's largest annual convention for Free Software focusing on GNU/Linux. This is where dot-com meets dot-org: LinuxTag is aimed at everyone interested in Free Software: companies, public agencies, non-profits, and free projects. This is the mix that has made LinuxTag the most successful event of its kind. LinuxTag is where innovative technologies are not only thought out theoretically, but also made a reality.
The Purpose of LinuxTag
LinuxTag offers an all-in-one platform to deliver information to everyone interested in open source and free software, and to create synergies between business and the free software community. LinuxTag brings together people representing open source projects, companies, and government agencies. The offerings are wide-ranging and include information for novices and newcomers as well as for developers and IT decision makers.
Promoting Free Software
LinuxTag is part of the free software movement, and strives to assist the community by an extraordinary level of support for the numerous open-source projects. LinuxTag gives these projects an opportunity to present their software, their concepts, and their participants to the public in an appropriate format, with their own booths, forums, and presentations. In this way the projects benefit from an active exchange of concepts and content with other groups and companies. This communication is the process in which new advances and technologies are rigorously examined and new courses are charted.
