hi all

The book "Fast Track to Linux" by DIGIT contains wrong information about
free softwares (page 15) and RMS (page 16).

A free, but not open source, software can only be used, but cannot be 
modified-or  for that matter dissected to see how it works. (Page 15)

No discussion on open source or free software is complete without the
mention of Ricahard Stallman, the founder of GNU project, who has
written numerous books and white papers on open source. (page 16)

Should we request Jasubhai Digit Media to rectify this, if so how ?

My opinion:
Request them to publish contents of
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html
and
http://www.slackbook.org/html/introduction-opensource.html

in the comming issue
