Deuxfleurs is my main computer-related project at the moment. Deuxfleurs is not only a technical endeavor: we are trying to promote alternative ways of using computers and the Internet to a large audience for everyday uses, to be more in line with our political ideals. Talk to me if you are interested in what we are doing!
