Abstract: Over the past several years, Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) such as Firefox, OmegaT, OpenOffice.org and the Linux operating system have become increasingly popular with translators. The reasons are obvious: FOSS is secure, functional and reliable and allows translators to work productively without worrying about high costs and licensing constraints. Here I discuss how you can get started using a full suite of FOSS programs and learn how to integrate FOSS tools based on open standards like XLIFF and XML into your current computing environment.
