After a bit of downtime, Mark and I got back together to catch up on life in the open source world. Both of us have been immersed in some cool projects and now are finally catching our breath.
Mark has been configuring and hacking away on some IP tables and routing, all based on the flexiblity of Linux. We talked briefly about the key points that Mark found interesting and are planning to dedicate a future podcast to the topic.
I have been away in Ecuador, working to raise the profile of open source in education. Having mandated the use of Open Source software in education and public ministries, Ecuador is looking to take the next step forward. It was encouraging to be able to focus on migration strategies instead of comparing merits vs proprietary solutions,
We look forward to having future interviews with various members of the open source community and sharing some technical insights as well.
