Inside the Open Source Lab

Posted by timothy on from the their-only-begotten-oc48s dept.

FreeFooOpenFighter writes "KernelTrap has an interesting article about Oregon State University's Open Source Lab. They currently provide hosting for an impressive list of projects including, among many others, the Mozilla Foundation, Debian GNU/Linux, and Gentoo Linux. According to the informative article, they plan to continue to donate hosting with their two OC48s to FOSS projects meeting their criteria."

    here are four (4) words that are never said enough to all the people involved in FOSS, they are free and no licence is required to say them:

    Actually, the OSL is not a running joke around OSU. We're a fantastic team that is helping moving open source forward at the University and in the world.

    Talk with our students, talk with all of our customers, talk with Mozilla, Gentoo, Debian, KernelTrap and ask them how much we suck. Lemme know how that goes for you.

    The running joke is anonymous cowards that don't have the backbone to stick behind what they say.
