"Techies, however, would have heard the speech differently. They would have been drawing heavy breaths as another politician seemingly took credit for a technological advancement. Ubuntu, you see, is the name of the system used by the Linux operating system to distribute its software. Linux operating systems are open source, which means that anybody can do what they want with them - for free. It's a concept of sharing that may be uncommon in the secretive world of computer software, but is inspired by the philosophy of ubuntu."
