1st Linux Kongress in Heidelberg, Germany, 1994

“I often compare open source to science. To where science took this whole notion of developing ideas in the open and improving on other peoples' ideas and making it into what science is today and the incredible advances that we have had.

And I compare that to witchcraft and alchemy, where openness was something you didn't do.”

Linus Torvalds, 2006

“Those people who think they know everything

are a great annoyance to those of us who do.”

Isaac Asimov, 1960

From lone wolves… …to the power of the pack

Coding skills? Social skills?

Social skills? Coding skills?

From one… …to many

“All for one and one for all.

United we stand, divided we fall.”
