Comment by Sidian M.S. Jones on September 19, 2012 at 12:03pm When you say that which got you here, what do you mean exactly? Have these sources lead you to embrace a more open source methodology?
Comment by Aethyric de la Mer on September 19, 2012 at 2:50pm That which got me here means... those works to which I've been exposed that lead to an open-source methodology long before I'd even _heard_ of such a thing. A slew of O'Reilly books on Linux and Perl would probably be appropriate for this list, too, to be honest. I'm not certain if the books led me or if the thought processes lead to the books. Chicken and egg, I suppose.
