TReMU includes academics, developers, and technology professionals from the Pakistan Linux Users' Club. The Pakistani government announced its intentions through the press and promoted the effort through an ad in the Karachi-based, English-language newspaper Dawn, which declared that the team "will come with proposals to the government [for] funding such as the creation of user-friendly client/server software, training strategies, local language software development, the induction of LINUX into [the] basic syllabi, etc."
