I started using Debian and RedHat Linux when I was at www.shef.ac.uk back in 1993. Then I got into e-mail discussions with Richard Stevenson at Pegasus Mail in New Zealand. By 95/96 I was helping to start the first UK LUG - www.manlug.org.uk - and then later - www.sheflug.org.uk - which I still run. The discussion with Richard Stevenson was about the fact that I would have to be nuts to suggest that a free desktop could exist on Linux. But, as we all know. Times have changed. I spent ten years writing for - www.linuxuser.co.uk - www.linuxformat.co.uk - http://www.linux-magazine.com/ . Travelled round the world a few times doing that. Just at the moment we seem to be experiencing a healthy FOSS environment with many versions of GNU/Linux and BSD out there. It wasn't always like that. -- Richard https://twitter.com/SleepyPenguin1 http://www.sheflug.org.uk -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
