No, we were on *before* security now. It was an hour early today.

Randal Schwartz Bradley M. Kuhn

@bkuhn, I wrote #CamelBook first edition. So you *did* learn !Perl from my book!

Randal Schwartz Dan Lynch

@methoddan Yeah, a cut-n-paste error. They even got my name wrong. {sigh}.

Randal Schwartz Psychedelic Squid (is now at Fragdev)

@psquid I'm happy @MethodDan did a good job, but I'll be back at the helm of FLOSS Weekly next week.

As soon as identica can automatically feed to facebook, and posterous feed to identica, and ... (six other twitter connects), I'll switch.

Randal Schwartz x1101

@x1101 I *am* on identica. I just don't use it, because the twitter setup is much more connected to other sites I use.

Randal Schwartz Matthew Davidson

@freemjd Nope. Still limited to Free(Libre) and Open Source Software. Notice the "and".

Randal Schwartz Matthew Davidson

@freemjd Yup, we cover the entire range of consumer-is-free-to-modify software. It's a big umbrella. RMS isn't the only one with good ideas.

Randal Schwartz Douglas A. Whitfield

@dawisnowonbrainbirdasdouglasawh Only if you survey "would you pay $5 to stop ads like this?" Otherwise, you just get the handout-wanters.

Randal Schwartz Britt Snodgrass

@monkeybritt PBS also receives half or more of its funding from Federal Taxes. Leo's not so lucky. :)

Randal Schwartz Douglas A. Whitfield

@dawisnowonbrainbirdasdouglasawh Finding good sponsors for FW is especially hard, and donations don't happen. Costs must be paid.

Randal Schwartz Fabian Scherschel

@fabsh I don't cover Linux distros because you guys do that already, and I'm a "practical" OSS guy, allowing a blend of open and closed S/W

Randal Schwartz Britt Snodgrass

@monkeybritt FLOSS Weekly is sometimes ad-supported to cover production costs. The ads are still far fewer than most shows. :)

Randal Schwartz Sander

@sandersch Sorry!

Randal Schwartz

A mail thread of linux podcasters, wanting cross promotion. I said no to playing promos, but I *would* trade being interviewed for mention.

Randal Schwartz Evan Prodromou

@evan Yeah, hopefully, the tedium was all mine. :)

Randal Schwartz Justin O'Brien

@threethirty Wasn't addressed. I don't believe in hiding behind hacker aliases, or that a foul-language show helps open source.

Randal Schwartz Justin O'Brien

@threethirty Listen to the Linux Outlaws chat, and you'll see I addressed the "linux"/"important" aspect. Or don't, and be a jerk. :)

Randal Schwartz sergio t. ruiz

@sergio101 Besides the ones that are already there?
