[edit] Libervis.com
Libervis.com, founded in June 2004[1] as a free software community center, is a site now about the philosophical aspects of free culture. It uses forums, essays, news, and a wiki to discuss this.
[edit] Nuxified.org
Nuxified.org is a free software technical support site with forums, blogging (about free software only), and articles (usually tutorials or software reviews). It was founded in response to LinuxForums.org switching its forum software from the free phpBB to the nonfree vBulletin after being bought out in December 2005. Common users of Libervis.com and LinuxForums.org felt that was hypocritical and set a bad example for a FOSS site.[2]
In July 2006, Nuxified started a partnership with GetGNULinux.org. Nuxified hosts forums for discussing GetGNULinux.org.[3]
In August 2006, Nuxified started a similar partnership with PolishLinux.org.[4]
[edit] Trivia
