Universiti Islam Antarabangsa (PJ campus) is also celebrating SFD on their own style. Nevertheless, the event is not going to be held tomorrow, it is on 20 – 21 September 2007 instead.

Organized by Kuching Open Source Community, the celebration in Sarawak was held earlier on 12th September 2007 in Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS).

    This is great news, Irwan. Terima kasih for letting us know about the state of Free Software in Malaysia.

    Your Software Freedom Day has already started while I write this. Enjoy it, and keep spreading the word.

    Wa’aleikumussalam,
    Wolfgang

    wolfgang,
    So, I guess you should be happy to be in Malaysia because free/opensource software is also a part of our culture :)

    Yeah, I decided I’ll be switching my servers to Debian.

    It slowly started with my desktop OS, when I moved from Fedora to Ubuntu. (and CentOS before Fedora, until came the need for wireless with ipw3945 on my new laptop [was using Orinoco Gold on my old CentOS 4 laptop]).

    There was a reason why I chose to try something else. First, the (french) translation under Fedora was somewhat broken back then, sometimes resulting in frenglish sentences. But the most tedious problem in Fedora was (and still is) actually the point of the Fedora project : it is a testing field for RedHat, meaning a lot of updates (I’ve had 100MB+ updates waiting when not booting for a few days), it also meant a lot of kernel updates, and at every kernel release, wireless support (provided by a 3rd party repo due to patent issue) and some other stuff would go kaboom. From there, you have two choices, sticking with the “old” kernel until support is brought up by some good fella out there, or rebuild/recompile that stuff that just broke.
