Here’s an interesting HOWTO Wouter Verhelst has written to give advices to researchers studying Libre Software.
I hope his guidelines don’t apply to research done by my collegues 😉 … anyway, I thought it was worth mentioning it in Planet Floss Research 😉
I’ve posted before (actually one of my first posts on this blog), about the way I use a USB storage key to host crypted informations and manage it easily on my GNU/Linux laptop… it was not really obvious though.
There seems to be a new way to do that with the use of device-mapper and LUKS, which is going to be integrated in the desktop tools in Gnome. Great, one more of my hacks that can be replaced by standard tools.
The deadline for the Call For Papers for the Workshop Free Software (WSL 2006) held in Porto Alegre (Brazil) during FISL 7 has been extended to 27th of february 2006.
Take your chance to meet actors of the largest free software community in South America.

La vidéo de la conférence portant sur l’expérience du projet ProGET (“Intégration d’applications logicielles libres pour la réalisation d’une plate-forme de travail collaboratif destinée aux enseignants/chercheurs du GET”) que nous avons donnée aux JRES 2005 est disponible en ligne. Bonne conf 😉
Stéphane Bortzmeyer a donné aux JRES2005 une excellente conférence sur les nouveaux systèmes de gestion de versions. La vidéo est en ligne.
Je conseille à tous ceux qui se poseraient des questions sur quel nouveau système adopter lorsque CVS commence à montrer ses limites.
