GNU Labs is an initiative based on a college,officially supported by [http://www.gnu.org The GNU project] which aims for the development of science, technology, computer and freedom. The lab supports the free software idea put forward by the [http://www.fsf.org Free Software Foundation] and [http://www.gnu.org The GNU Project] and supports the concept of the software being  [http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html free ] and believes that the freedom of a user to study,share and edit the source code of a program is essential. The GNU Labs aims at the improvement and development of existing free softwares,and also to make the public aware of the benefits and need of free softwares. The lab also supports the students inside the campus for doing their final year project in and as free software. The lab follows a set of laws called as GNU Labs law,GLL, which the lab volunteers should follow. These laws are not meant to restrict the benefits, but to set freedom as a standard for the lab works. Any group inside an educational institution which supports the views of free software and are ready to work in the conditions of GLL can make GNU Labs inside their campus. Doing so is indeed most welcomed.
