[ Thanks to Linus for this link. ]

The free software movement got another small boost this
week as an India-based group launched a new Web site offering users
worldwide a host of different operating systems and their
accompanying documentation, including Linux.

“The FreeOS.com site, based in Mumbai, India, which staunchly
opposes the time-honored and lucrative practice of charging for
operating systems, offers not just the product but free
documentation for at least 11 different operating systems,
including Linux which is heavily documented, company officials
noted.”

“Besides Linux, other operating systems supported by the new Web
site includes, Linux, FreeBSD, BPMK, Cynus, FreeDos, Freedows, GNU
Hurd, Minix, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and VSTa.”
