Tux to replace Trinity window
A 16ft Tux motif will make up the new stained-glass window design at the front of the Trinity Centre
Trinity has been championing the use of free and open source software (FOSS) for several years, to bring affordable software solutions to the communities we service.
Emma Harvey, Activities Coordinator for the Centre, attended an IT4Communities Awards event in February where she met the philanthropist Sir I.C. Bovidae of Sweeden. Emma told him all about Trinity's work and also that we were in need of making urgent repairs to our 16ft stained-glass window at the front of the building.
Without hesitation, Sir Bovidae wrote a cheque for the entire sum of the repairs, but on the condition that the stained-glass window design be of a 16ft Tux penguin - a notorious symbol of free-software.
Emma Harvey commented, "The design will be both quirky and symbolic of Trinity's free-software policies - and everyone likes penguins."
The window is due to be unveiled next April.
