Source-derived summary

Since 2000 the Hungarian Unix Portal (HUP), founded by Gábor Micsko a.k.a. trey, is the largest Hungarian UNIX/Linux/BSD system administrators' webpage.

HUP's aim is to join with the Hungarian free software community. Members of HUP can discuss and resolve problems about *NIX systems. The main language of HUP is Hungarian.

HUP hosts the HupWiki, which is the most important wiki about free software and *NIX systems in Hungary. HupWiki consists of over 1000 articles and documentations.

HUP (also known as: portal.fsn.hu) has been associated with the Free Software Network (a.k.a. FSN.hu) foundation.

FSN's goal is to distribute free software, to help people and organizations using them and to provide infrastructural background and other services.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Hungarian Unix Portal” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Hungarian, Unix and Portal provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q1056432. None of the 2 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2000 and 1000.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
