The now defunct OpenCD project aimed to introduce users of Microsoft Windows to the benefits of free and open source software (FOSS). It is a CD image that can freely be downloaded and copied. The OpenCD team screened programs for stability, quality, and ease of installation, and only distributed programs available under an OSI-approved open source license,〔(TheOpenCD Software Inclusion Criteria )〕 which allows users to freely use and distribute the disc as they wish. It was sponsored by Canonical Ltd., for a period. The project was started in April 2002 in response to an article on linux.com by astrophysics student Henrik Nilsen Omma.〔(An idea for Free Software CD ) by Henrik Nilsen Omma, April 20, 2002.〕 In September 2007, project lead Chris Gray left the project to pursue his own open source disc, called OpenDisc, citing numerous difficulties〔(Mutiny aboard the good ship TheOpenCD ), September 27, 2007.〕 which he believed were negatively affecting the progress of the OpenCD project. As of September 27, 2007, the OpenCD project is no longer under active development.〔(OpenCD homepage ), September 27, 2007.〕 ==Version 07.04== Version 07.04 includes the then-latest versions of the following: * Design: Blender, The GIMP, Inkscape, NVU, Scribus, Tux Paint. * Games: Battle for Wesnoth, Enigma, Neverball, Sokoban YASC * Internet: Azureus, FileZilla, Firefox, Pidgin, HTTrack, RSSOwl, SeaMonkey, Thunderbird, TightVNC, WinSCP * Multimedia: Audacity, Celestia, Really Slick Screensavers, Stellarium * Productivity: MoinMoin, Notepad2, OpenOffice.org, PDFCreator * Utilities: 7-Zip, Abakt, ClamWin, GTK+, HealthMonitor, Workrave 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「OpenCD」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
