Cool read:
“Obstacles such as financial constraints, very minimum PC resources, did not in any way deter the grit of Kerala-based, 15-year old Sarath Lakshman from developing SLYNUX- a highly user-friendly GNU/Linux operating system designed for beginners. A completely self-taught person, who has never stepped into a computer-learning institute in his lifetime, his tale is one of guts and more guts.”

Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
what's the fuss tofi uncle ? it's just another linux distro !! there are even scripts there to create distro for you. check out slax.
creating "user friendly" gnu os is as easy as installing ur fav distro, modifying it ( not programming but adding/removing programs ) and running some scripts over it.
cxo is most probably in indian site.

Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
Nothing's a big deal if you really think about it. What difference does it make if its on an Indian site? Tum log bhi na. Its a fellow geek doesn't matter which boundry he is beyond.
Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
you are right, but these indians create so much shor/sharaba/fuss over some little things like the current one. but yeah gr8 work by that teen ager.
Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
I have nothing against Indians but something that has been around for years and lable it your own is something I don't get.
I have a feeling that this project will die out like that kid claimed to be the winner of NASA test and at the end it was all fake.

Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
hmmm .... thing is ... did any other site recognise his efforts? If he's really that talented n' is really that young then it should have been mentioned on Slashdot or any other linux site.

Re: Indian Teenager Develops User Friendly GNU Linux OS
That site just yells Indian. Why did you guys need confirmation for that?
