Since this is HN, does anyone know what the IT sector is like in Cuba?
Apparently they have a university dedicated to IT stuff[1] but I don't read Spanish and I couldn't really find any projects/research page on there. The only thing that seems to be portrayed is a Linux distro called Nova.[2]
On your second link, there's a great pun on "HumanOS", which in Spanish simply means "Humans".
On the university site, there's a few hidden links to Cuban Mozilla fans[1], a digital publication for open source software [2], a youth-targeted site for open-source users[3] (seems down), and a women-targeted site for IT [4]. Note that there's more, but everything seems to be down at the moment, it might be the HN effect
There are lot's of different projects internally. You have to remember that the cuban people does not have direct internet access, so is harder for Cubans to distribute their open source projects.
Here in Miami there are a number of Cuba initiatives for IT/tech education and entrepreneurship/startups. Happy to put you in touch with people if you're interested.
