[steve at dobson.org: Re: [Sussex] Just to say Hi]

[Peter Jones]

Hi Steve.

Thankyou for the invitation but I don't think I will
be mooting this month. To tell you a bit about myself,
I have been developing software on a commercialised
operating system beginning with the letter U since
1990, so when I started using Gnu/Linux a few years
ago I was in the unusual position of being more
comfortable with the CLI than the GUI tools. I am a
bit of a distro 
hopper, currently favouring Ubuntu, Slackware and
Musix
at home and Fedora at work (also Frugalware, Mandriva,
Arch  and SuSE in the past).
