n. type of oxlike African antelope

n. (Computers) operating system founded by Richard Stallman that resembles UNIX and can be distributed modified and copied freely after paying an initial fee (developed by the Free Software Foundation)

GNU (pronounced ) is a computer operating system composed entirely of free software. Its name is a recursive acronym for GNU's Not Unix, which was chosen because its design is Unix-like, but differs from Unix by being free software and by not containing any Unix code. GNU was founded by Richard Stallman and was the original focus of the Free Software Foundation (FSF).

DotGNU is a part of the GNU Project that aims to provide a free software replacement for the Microsoft .NET. Other goals of the project are better support for non-Windows platforms and support for more processors.The main goal of the DotGNU project and the Microsoft Shared Source CLI (Rotor) code base is to provide a class library that is 100% Common Language Specification compliant. In contrast, the main goal of another free software/open source CLI implementation, the Mono Project, is to provide 100 ompatible class libraries for both the CLS specification and with the class library currently released by Microsoft for their proprietary version of .NET, which the DotGNU project claims does not currently fully comply with the CLS specification published by ECMA.
