2 Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva Mission To adopt, recommend, develop, distribute and maintain affordable and durable standards, software solutions and packages targeted to fulfill the basic ICT needs in developing countries.

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 3 Goals  sustainability of ICT projects  operations cost reduction  independence from western S/W manufacturers  transfer of competence, education

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 4 Sustainability  Local resources must be able to evolve with technology innovations and keep the pace with new H/W and S/W trends  Local administrators must have a perfect understanding of the technology and rely upon a solid, affordable and available support system

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 5 Affordability  H/W cost is decreasing, S/W is increasing  Connectivity is expensive in isolated areas  Global ICT costs are not adapted to local financial resources

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 6 Solutions  Develop an integrated SW environment based on OSS and free of charge  Negotiate special contracts with S/W vendors  Integrate such solutions into a unique standard distribution kit for developing countries

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 7 Why Open Source?  Independence from proprietory software  Latest ICT trends  Multiplatform  Web services, XML, Java  Wide expertise available (shared values)  Growing “Free Software” Society

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 8 Why Linux?  Lower costs, improved reliability, stability, flexibility, choice  Reduced management time  Being in control of solutions and budget  Linux is maturing rapidly  Several implementations (Red Hat, SuSe, Debian)  Desktop applications available (Ximian)

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 9 Implementation  Linux Integrated Free Environment Kernel Remote management extensions Sys calls interface for Win/MacOS products Server applications Cybercafe’ administration package OpenOffice Teaching kits (incl. illiterate)

Silvano de Gennaro - WSIS Geneva 10 Potential partners  Linux International (LI)  Linux Professional Institute (LPI)  Free Software Foundation  Simputer  WWW Consortium (W3c)  CERN  UNV, UNITeS, UNDP etc.  IAVE, OneWorld …  …
