From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

37.5 hour work week
Here I am working 35h as full time in Canada. Same for my brother who works in the government. Some jobs/countries in Europe do 32h/full time.
We have 38h in Belgium, but if you work 40, you get 12 extra full days of holiday during the year (what I do).
A 32 hour work week with no salary cut will never happen, but that would be a dream
It may happen through union development, and free software development, i.e. whatever form of permanent democracy you prefer.
25% of any population being able to democratically vote for a strike and fully enforce it will de facto become the main political force in the country.
