Thanks to Anuradha Ratnaweera <gnu.slash.linux at gmail.com> for filling us in with details about FLOSS in Sri Lanka, as follows:

Lanka Linux User Group (http://www.linux.lk , http://www.lug.lk ) have been advocating GNU/Linux and Free / Open Source Software since 1998. Recently, we have started working closely with the tux group of Narada Center (http://foss.metta.lk ).

Check http://mail.linux.lk/lurker/ to see what we have been doing.

Lanka Software Foundation (http://www.opensource.lk ) is another organization who is also promoting FOSS development in Sri Lanka.
