An intellectually honest history of FOSS is needed while we still remember what people like you did.

Podcasts – um, the infrastructure for long-time management of content (indexing, cataloging, preserving) is much more advanced for books, or even blog posts, than podcasts. Look at how often ‘Hackers’ get mentioned.

Slight bias on my part perhaps – I’ve done a lot of technical writing, and editing.

I have been a happy Debian user, from about 2002. Getting ADSL is what made it click for me-smooth updates. RPM hell was no fun.

Can’t do it without context! Count me in!

https://www.duolingo.com/translation/268d4d3e17c6815d880af536f2f68d0d

I thought it’s an interesting article and since it’s under a CC licence I suggested it for translation.
