NMinkerI got into it in college, and, on my own, installed Ubuntu 8.04 on a VM,19:10

FaqtotumI know we've moved on from the question "How did you get started in open source?" so I thought I'd answer it here instead. From a very early age, I've had a firm belief in Anarchism, since the very day I first saw the word in the dictionary.
