It was february 2000: I just discovered Python and I was amazed that such a
great software was free. Then "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" hooked me
completely. At the time I taught Richard Stallman was too radical, and I
was fond of the ESR Open Source approach.

Four years later I've realized Stallman was not too radical, he was simply
right.

YMMV
