A new F/OSS project that I like a lot is the
eyeOS project. Have been invited to join the dev. team (very proud of that) and have been given the duty of writing user-end documentation. Most of the apps. I've mentioned above allow me to do so and do it efficiently.
...All thanks to Dann, Linc, Pat, and Allan, who took the time to interview someone from the eyeOS project on the show a couple of weeks ago. Thanks, guys!
