Philosophy: Software Freedom
“It's Free Software and it gives you freedom!”
 * The freedom to run the program, for any purpose
 * The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (access to the source code is a precondition for this)
 * The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbour
 * The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits. Access to the source code is a precondition for this
 * Free software saves money - it is free with no licences
 * It is easy to use
 * Can be run on laptops, servers and new and old computers
 * Gnu the Gnu and Tux the Penguin are the cute mascots

Cost:Free

 * Free as in free speech and free chocolate
