Thank you for your suggestion @ notKlaatu.

Probably not the first topic you would like to do but definitely something that should be covered - building and complex programs in Linux. Especially in C++ and visibility of builds (a la Electric Cloud or IncrediBuild)

I'd suggest http://fullcirclemagazine.org/2016/1...e-115-is-here/, a mainly Ubuntu based open source magazine which appears monthly.

Content is mainly supplied by its readers.

It includes a bit of command line, a lot of GUI and some hardware interface stuff.

I've suggested issue 115, but issues 001-114 are also available.

If you are still open for suggestions, I would like to ask - What are some small business open source applications that replace popular applications on Windows. For example: Microsoft Office replaced by Libre Office, etc.

Thank you!

The “open source” label was created at a strategy session held on February 3rd, 1998 in Palo Alto, California.

I don't know about windows applications since my business (now slowly winding down) had been microsoft free from its beginning.

But I have used:

- Libre Office (originally OpenOffice.org);
- Inkscape;
- GIMP (slowly being replaced by Krita);
- Kmail (later replaced by Claws Mail after one Akonadi failure too many);
- dosemu (to run a POS (point of sale) system - the one bit of software I needed for which I couldn't find a working, GPLed, Linux alternative);
- Gwenview;
- Okular;
- possibly others I can't remember.

Hope that helps.

Thanks
