Hayya 'Alal Linux

Share this history on :
Milad celebrated the birth of Linux began bustling this April. Various thanksgiving ceremony was held, among others, the launch of CGL (carrier grade Linux) 5.0, installation image "I'll Celebrating 20 years of Linux with the Linux Foundation!" On a blog the followers of Linux, and will dipungkasi LinuxCon carpet celebration in Vancouver, August.
In the age of retracing the past 20 years, Linux's face now looks full of bubbling youthful independence. Torvalds as the midwife, would rejoice to see Tux, "godson", has now become a socialite as well as icons of the world: Penguin hero of liberation against the tyranny of proprietary and operating system monopoly.
As the world are bundled in two different sides, then Linux seems destined to become an alternative matching of coded proprietary software. As the balance of Yin Yang Sunnah: is the closure of the window, surely there must be an open door. While major vendors sell officially licensed expensive software, GNU / Linux offers the ease of sharing license. Proprietary capital for branding, Linux for human beings. So far, Linux appears to be more humane because it is not just cram the concept of profit and loss in a trade sale and purchase of materials.
 
Transformation of seedlings Linux then split the spirit of FOSS (freeware open source software) to all over the world, including rousing welcome in Indonesia. This is possible because the philosophy that carried FOSS Linux bonding with the noble civilization secorak Indonesianness: mutual cooperation, volunteerism, freedom, solidarity, justice, and self-reliance. For this reason also, the author moved so reverts Linux since mid-2008, other than a moral responsibility to control pests piracy.
The celebration of 20 years should be to arouse Linux Indonesia, particularly the observers and users of IT. One side of the rapid development of technology in this country to be grateful, for example by looking at the growth of hardware sales. IDC released, fiscal year 2010, PC shipments to Indonesia reached 62%. Data Apkomindo mention notebook and netbook sales in 2010 estimated its portion increased to 70% and finally to 80% in 2011 and 2012.
On the other hand, the phenomenon of the use of pirated software continues to concern. Please googling percentage of software piracy in Indonesia. Yes, the numbers are still struggling in the range of 86%, as IDC and BSA release data. Of course this is a note in default that must be ended. The reason for high prices when buying and choosing licensed practical use pirated license is a hallmark pathology of pariah ..
When you're honest, two common reasons users of pirated it was answered by the presence of FOSS Linux. Convenient features, GUI, and reliability of the content is now almost equal the paid commercial software. Package operating system and applications included in one bundle installation, more ease of use, in addition to saving on the bag of course. The developers of the Linux FOSS Indonesia also continues to move perfected various gaps weaknesses (bugs) that complained. At least no more reason hijack software, mainly for the purpose of office routine.
Speech recognition reliability, Linux has penetrated into the broad ecosystem of computing technology. Cloud computing, servers, media syndication, including the Internet, now increasingly hectic berLinux ria. The search engine Google, who does not know him? Android is now a phenomenon also skyrocketed?
They turned out to voters as jerohan driving the Linux platform. From here, the reluctance to try Linux with the excuse "not as famous as the bootleg" or "do not have any friends" is not relevant.
The government was already trying to pass campaign IGOS, though now deserted after the new education minister repercussions. At least people have a strong foothold to launch a serious effort in this direction. MUI also reads, "unlawful use of pirated software." If it is considered not adequate strength inkracht, enough so come-on community networking.
Like the message Mr. Kusmayanto Kadiman, that the axis correctional Linux FOSS can be activated through a series of ABG + C co (academia, business, Government + community). Well, the power of community networking can be a pioneer if for example the third element of ABG Shining. Community represented a local developer who is very strong commitment and passion kerelawanannya keIndonesiaannya. So what else is less endorser?
Furthermore, there is the relevance of similar value if reconcile the philosophy of Linux and the spirit of Indonesian independence. Indonesia gained independence from the colonial Dutch East India Company, while Linux try to offer liberation from bondage vendor proprietary license. Kang Onno been warned, so far run into millions of dollars overseas because the purchase of licensed proprietary operating system. Moreover, the purchase of pirated software, in addition to harming the state, also knows where the allotment of the money evaporates.
So it's time to say good-milad-20 Linux .. Through the 20th anniversary of the birth of Linux is, it's time to move into software options are cheap, easy, and legitimate. "Hayya 'Alal Linux". Let emigrated to Linux. Merdekakan themselves from the snares prorietary. Money 20 thousand which is usually used to buy pirated software it should be donated to a local Linux FOSS development. Of course this will be a phenomenon of self-reliance that membersyukurkan.
Related practice exercise honesty, start from the immediate environment. For example in computing jobs, always use the computer operating system is legal. If feels expensive proprietary software licenses, use FOSS-friendly Linux that cost social and proven reliable. You can choose Linux FOSS free enterprise or corporate editions are freely available at various mirror downloads. This option will be more secure and reassuring than the cat and mouse with the security forces because selling pirated license.
Choosing Linux FOSS also reflects awareness and self-sufficient IT berswadaya process, in addition to supporting the work of respected local developer potential. Do not forget also the social responsibility to suppress the crime of intellectual property theft. As the public railed Somali pirates Indonesian citizen hostage, then it is time now to stop piracy in the country itself: Use Linux and FOSS Enough illegal use of proprietary licensing.
Together with the author, let's shake hands with Tux and follow the steps that graceful swing winding. Congratulations milad on ijtihat Torvalds. Congratulations Linuxer all excited. While thanksgiving, continue kumandangkan invitation "Hayya 'alal Linux" to computer users in Indonesia.
