Linux: The Codebreakers

Quote
A two-part documentary, The Codebreakers was aired on BBC World TV during May 2006. It investigates how poor countries are using FOSS applications for development, and includes stories and interviews from around the world.

I gave it a very honest look to see if I could find an original site, but I couldn't. So here are links to the vids:
