Free Software Article in "Info Madhyamam"

The article composed by Balakrishnan Sir, Venkat, Reju and me has been published in the Information Technology supplement of Madhyamam a leading newspaper of Kerala on Friday 9th March 2007.

The article talks about the core concepts of Free Software and most importantly about the misconceptions behind the term "Free Software". Apart from these the article also mentions some history of Free Software and the GNU Movement. The "Open source" term has been explained briefly.

Since the article is a part of a series planned by us on behalf of the "Indian Linux User's Group (Cochin Chapter)", it also talks about GNU/Linux, explains "distributions" and sets the stage for a more detailed explanation in the coming articles.
