New category: Improving Free Software

I divide free software people this way:

  • almost everybody can proudly say to be a free/open source software user
  • most of us develop software with free software
  • some of us participate to free software development
  • and a tiny small group of coders does the hard work

I stick on the first and second groups.
On time to time, I release a new free software, taking part in the last group, at least for a few lines of code.
More often I’m part of the third group, by submitting bugs and (sometimes) patches.
I’ve decided to list those patches here, since somehow they give a feeling on how, why and when I do what I say to do to friends and colleagues asking me about linux and the rest.
And by the way, that improves my curriculum.
