Larry Cafiero aka Larry the Free Software Guy reports via FOSS Force:

You've been using Linux for some time and have been thinking, "Gee, I wish I could make a living with Linux."

[...]Fourteen of you--who can demonstrate the greatest need and best illustrate what a Linux career means to you--will be awarded training scholarships [says the Linux Foundation.]

"We're looking for individuals in seven different categories who want to contribute to the advancement of the Linux operating system and help influence its future."

[...]The Linux Foundation Training Scholarships will cover the expenses for one class to be chosen by each recipient from the Scholarship Track choices. Winners in all categories may also elect to take a Linux Foundation Certified System Administrator or Linux Foundation Certified Engineer exam at no cost following the completion of their training course.

The Linux Foundation this year is offering two scholarships in each of the following seven categories:

  • Linux Newbies
  • Teens-in-Training
  • Whiz Kids
  • Women in Linux
  • SysAdmin Super Stars
  • Developer Do-Gooder
  • Linux Kernel Guru

The deadline to submit applications is July 10.

    how does that work?

    Well, you have to teach Hinduism or Buddhism to the set of vectors that get mapped to zero by a linear map.
