Description
About SLUG
Although SLUG is a Linux Users Group, most of what we talk about is the Open Source and Free Software available for Linux, not the kernel itself. Indeed, much of this software runs on other platforms, such as proprietary UNIX systems (Solaris, HP-UX, etc.), the BSDs, Mac OS X and Windows. There are lots of questions about integration on our mailing list - it's a one of the great benefits of Open Source and Free Software.
Linux is a UNIX-like operating system originally created by Linus Torvalds as a student in 1991, and now developed by a team of programmers around the world.
It has gained a huge amount of interest because it is a secure, reliable, high-quality and low-cost alternative to other systems, and is freely available to research, modify and redistribute under the terms of the GNU General Public License (see the GPL FAQ for easier to digest information).
