Germany-funded Linux software arriving | |

Thanks Chris. "The software comes from the Kroupware project, bankrolled by the German government to build open-source software that can substitute for Microsoft's Exchange and Outlook. Though the first elements have appeared in the new KDE 3.1 software, more will arrive in 3.2 later this year, said Andreas Pour, president of the KDE League. Linux is an open-source operating system, meaning anyone may see, modify and redistribute the software, a contrast to the proprietary control Microsoft keeps over Windows. Many open-source projects run atop the Linux core, including the XFree86 graphics technology and the KDE and Gnome interfaces that provide utilities such as control panels as well as software building blocks such as pull-down menus.
