The third open Software Freedom Day (SFD) on 16 September will be held from 10AM-5PM at the Yala Maya Kendra, Patan Dhoka and features giveaways, tutorials and troubleshooting help. Bring your computer along and the techies will do the rest. Over 90 percent of Nepal's computers run on pirated software, and Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) has long been seen as a solution. Users of such programs may freely use, study, and even alter them. In December 2005, Subhir Pradhanang, a founding member of Nepal's FOSS community, released Nepalinux, a full-fledged operating system with desktop applications for Nepali home users. www.fossnepal.org
