GNU Kicks Off 25th Anniversary Celebration

This month marks the 25th anniversary of the founding of the GNU Project by Richard M. Stallman. GNU is one of the oldest and best-known organizations in the free and open-source world, providing not only high-quality software, but also a well-known license (the GNU General Public License), and a philosophy that continues to influence many activists and programmers. The exact anniversary of Stallman’s announcement is September 27th, 1983, when he called upon programmers to join him in creating “free Unix.”
