摘要說明：
軟體科技發展為因應使用者的需求而生，但是，許多軟體因為設計太刁鑽而無法讓使用者得心應手，自由軟體常給人以技術為中心刻板印象，很多人以為只有很懂電腦資訊科技的人才能也才會使用自由軟體，所以自由軟體無法打入一般使用者的市場(如桌面電腦市場)。但是，自由軟體的 module 特性，讓它有潛力發展各式各樣為特定使用者社群量身打造的軟體，但是卻又能不背離傳統主流的軟體發展，自由軟體的變身術也將成為軟體科技發展的新主流。 Debian Linux 已經發展出各式各樣應用於社會各層面各領域的特定客戶/社群專用的自由軟體，名為 "Custom Debian Distributions" (CDD)，講者將藉由介紹這個計畫構想以及其專案實例，說明專為特定使用者社群量身製作的自由軟體的重要性與潛力。講者也將以工作坊的形式教授如何用 Debian Linux 裡的軟體製作一套客戶專用的自由軟體套件。
本場次演講內容將涵蓋下列主題:
1. 介紹 Customised 軟體的新概念 2. Customised 軟體和主流軟體發展的關係 3. 介紹 "Custom Debian Distributions" (CDD) 計畫 4. CDD 軟體專案實例
- Debian 非營利版 - Debian 校園版(挪威的 Skole Linux?) - 巴西版的 Debian - 醫院管理版的 Debian - 影音工作者版的 Debian
5. 工作坊: 如何製作一套專屬的 Debian Distribution

How to find Debian packages:
apt-cache search <keyword> apt-cache search <keyword1> <keyword2> ... apt-cache show <package name> synaptic has a "search" function You can ask in debian-user@lists.debian.org The "debtags" prototype suite is going to add more search possibilities
How to install and uninstall packages:
Commandline interface: apt-get, apt-cache, aptitude apt-get install <package> or aptitude install <package> Text interface: aptitude Graphical interface: synaptic
