$username,

The official LQ poll series continues with another free-form response thread. This time we want to know: Was your first open source pull request or contribution? Visit https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...on-4175659208/ to let us know.

Follow us on twitter: https://twitter.com/linuxquestions

Based on feedback we've added LQ T-shirts to Amazon, which are available with free Prime shipping. Visit https://tqn.me/LQamz for the current selection. For a broader list of options (far beyond shirts), we will continue to support and offer https://www.zazzle.com/linuxquestions* as well.
