GNU-Friends Interviews
Jonas Öberg writes "GNU-Friends is doing a series of interviews with long-time free software hackers that I think people would be interested in. Check out interviews with Arnold Robbins, Karl Berry, Andrew L. Moore, Guido van Rossum, David MacKenzie and Chet Ramey. More to come, but that should keep people occupied for a few minutes." The GNU-Friends should have a show right after Superfriends.

"Outlook not so good." That magic 8-ball knows everything! I'll ask about Exchange Server next.
I read the interviews, and they don't tell you how to make GNU friends. We're stuck with our old D&D playing, zit faced, smelly friends until we can afford that 'vette.

I mean here's Gnothing there.
I have a few GNU/GPL friends, but unfortunately I have to share them with everyone.
Unfortunately, the number of free sofware hackers who are women is very, very small, on the order of 1%, and almost none of these women has any leadership role. However, there is one woman who would make an excellent interview subject, and who does have a leadership role (at the Gnome Foundation): Telsa Gwynne.
She herself would probably deny being a "free software hacker", though her testing and documentation work is critical to making the Gnome desktop a high-quality product.
