Since 2001 **Bglug** is a non-profit cultural association whose main purposes
are the spread of free software, the Linux operating system in particular and
the aggregation of users in Bergamo area.
We believe in the meaning of the **free and opensource software** (Foss) which
goes far beyond the merely technical or economic aspect.
We think that the principles of sharing knowledge that underlie free and
openource software are formative and educational. For this reason we believe
that schools **primarily** should adopt it and we propose to support who want
to take this path.
### Mailing List
An important point of reference for Bglug's activity is the mailing list. You

It is possible to contact the [board of directors](/organigramma) by
