Linux Biometrics Site Opens Doors

Posted by Zonk on from the scanning dept.

flickerfly writes "A new site to unite the individuals interested in Linux and Biometrics has opened its doors. LinuxBiometrics.com's purpose is to fill the biometrics void in the Open Source community. With the increased adoption of Linux in europe and the recent increase in biometrics interest by the EU, this appears to be a field ready to blossom into heavy adoption and will be in need of OSS support."

    Slightly off topic, but...

    Are there any studies that measure the economic impact of Linux and FOSS in general in Europe. I know that an Airbus is 30% cheaper than a similar Boeing, and perhaps this is in part due to a broader use of more efficient/economical software in the European aerospace industry.

    So if Europeans do use Linux more, does this show in the overall efficiency of the EU economies?
