4ZZZ was probably the one I always thought of when this discussion
came up!
2UNE/TUNE FM in Armidale borrowed heavily from the linux knowledge
from 4ZZZ. You guys were the 'big guns' of open source back then for
the CBAA.

I am interested to see things like Campcaster and Rivendell build a
network of knowledge sharing.
Just about to start trialling ubuntustudio as production studio
alternative.

Suggestions of what other stations there are, please - let me know!
