💡 Our motivations
Projets Libres is the audio complement to the LinuxFr.org site. Its objective is to:
Telling the story: discover and pass on the history and heritage of the projects, companies and associations that make up our eco-system. Knowing their history allows us to draw inspiration and make informed choices.
Helping professionals and enthusiasts : discover the business models and governance that make up free and open source projects.
Highlighting projects: we give a voice to people who share their experiences, mistakes and successes.
Passing on our passion: we love free and open source software, and love talking to you about it!
