FOSS over the years, Andrew Tridgell, creator of Samba, AU open-source hero (Virtual presentation)
This talk will look at how the FOSS landscape has changed over the last 30 years from the point of view of a developer.
Andrew Tridgell has had the pleasure of being involved in developing and maintaining a wide range of free software projects,
starting back in 1989 and continuing to the present day.
The way the free software community works has changed a lot in that time.
