You should create an account at tildegit.org, where Thunix's git repos are hosted, to include the system configuration definition files.
Ansible is the tool we use to configure the systems that comprise Thunix. Git and ansible are two tools your should familiarize yourself with.
.SH Purpose
The goal of Thunix is to be an open and collaborative environment, conducive to learning the principles of *Nix operating systems, regarding how they work, how to administer them, how to use them, and how to collaborate using them.
Thunix tries to adhere to the values and philosophy of the Hacker Ethic whenever possible. The hacker ethics and beliefs as described by Levy are:
* Access to computers - and anything which might teach you something about the way the world works - should be unlimited and total. Always yield to the Hands-On Imperative!
* All information should be free
* Mistrust authority - promote decentralization
* Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not criteria such as degrees, age, race, sex, or position
* You can create art and beauty on a computer
* Computers can change your life for the better
Thunix will never use proprietary software but users can do that if they wish. This is something they should avoid however.
