$username,

The Official LQ Poll Series continues. This time we want to know: How Did You Discover Linux?
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ux-4175586020/

I'm launching a new Q&A column on Opensource.com and I'm fine-tuning what topics I'll cover. Anything Linux, Open Source and community-related are fair game. What do you wish you'd known about Linux before you started using it? What questions do you have about building and maintaining communities? What would you like to know about contributing to an Open Source project? Visit http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...om-4175585631/ and let me know (or let us know on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comme...opensourcecom/ ).

Looking for the latest Linux and Open Source News? Visit the LQ Linux - News forum at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-news-59/ to stay current. Recent stories include "Linux 4.7 Kernel Officially Released", "New Skype for Linux Alpha and calling on Chrome & Chromebooks" and "Slackware 14.2 released". We also post the latest news to https://twitter.com/linuxquestions our twitter account.
