Call to fund Thai Linux and open source

Original: If I'm a billionaire, I'll pour all of my money on Thai Linux and Thai Open Source https:// friendica.world/display/84b6

A Thai-speaking free software advocate is arguing that if they were a billionaire, they would put their entire fortune into Thai Linux and Thai open source projects. The remark reflects a long-running wish among Thai developers and users for more domestic funding of localized software, Thai-language Linux distributions and homegrown open source tools, which typically depend on volunteer effort rather than serious investment.

Why now: A call for wealthy investment in Thai-language open source struck a chord with free software supporters.
