Myself, Anoop Thomas Mathew, a final year student of College of Engineering Chengannur, is an open source enthusiast, who think its necessary to contribute to the open source community.

I started using linux from 2004 rite now in Leonidas, Fedora 11.

In 2004, installing linux was a tedious task, with no GUI, and even if we had GUI, there will be no sound. This challenge made me more crazy on GNU/Linux, to achieve something really hard... Openness of GNU/Linux attracted me a lot... i started off my open-source saga... By 2007, i became a full-time, open source user.
