Richard Stallman

Very entertaining, this video is about the history and philosophy of the Open Software movement and the development of Linux, told largely in the words of the actual innovators, developers, and entrepreneurs themselves. It was interesting to learn about the eccentric characters involved, the passions stirred up and conflicts yet unresolved.

This is an old photo of a youthful Richard Stallman, the man who began the free software movement with his GNU Project and is still fighting the good fight.
