Gentoo Creator Daniel Robbins: Making Linux Free and Flexible


"For me it was a means of exploring and learning about Linux and open source technology. I used a few other Linux distros prior to working on Gentoo: I used an early version of Debian; I did a little bit of development on a distro that has now disappeared called Stampede Linux. I got to the point where I wanted to do some things in Linux that I really didn't see in other Linux distributions."

Of course, that's "part and parcel of the constructive chaos that is Linux," he said.
