"You don't have to live near the equator to know that the Latin American market is hot for Linux. By providing a support
infrastructure for Latin American users, Linux Alianza is poised to be at ground-zero when Linux-acceptance in the
Spanish-speaking world explodes."
"Linux Alianza is an alliance of Linux Web sites, completely in Spanish targeted at promoting Linux in Latin America through
its "Community and Commerce" concept. The multi-site, launched last February, may be accessed via http://LinuxFiesta.com.
There, surfers can find Linux commerce areas for businesses in addition to the information, resource, and service areas
typically associated with Linux Web sites, said Linux Alianza founder and CIO Mike Anderson."
"Since its March announcement that it had registered and donated 18 domain names and free Web site hosting to
Spanish-speaking Linux user groups (LUGS), Linux Alianza has ramped up efforts and is extending the scope of Linux global
domination even further south. Late this month, Linux Alianza is slated to launch a Portuguese-speaking site for users in Brazil,
Anderson said."
