Something that is becoming almost a tradition at GNOME.Asia Summit is to offer a portable computer that runs 100% on Free Software to participants of the conference. Of course the machine runs
GNOME but more importantly every components from drivers to BIOS has been selected to be able to run using free and open source software. This would not be possible without the support of
Lemote as one of our long term sponsors and we hope it is something we can count on every year. So this year three
Yeeloong have been won by one GNOME release team member
Frederic Peters, one GNOME developer
Ryan Lortie and one conference visitor,
Sravanthi Joshi. For the technically inclined it is probably advised to subscribe to the
Loongson development mailing list right here. We wish them good use of that little piece of hardware, which is the same machine that
Richard Stallman is using at the moment!
