Saving lives with mobile open source
,----[ Quote ]
| At the time I was aware of some data-collection or data-analysis programmes
| that had been created by public health authorities, all of which I thought
| were hampered by the fact they were not open source. Although they were
| created by public entities, their development was essentially monopolised by
| single organisations for reasons that continue not to be clear to me.

How Linux saved my life
,----[ Quote ]
| Have you ever been in a situation where you realised the frailty of your own
| existence? It happened to me. I sat thinking this is the end of the line but
| how little did I realise that I had a saviour alongside me in the form of the
| free open source operating system called Linux.
