I’ve started a web comic of my own. After literally a *couple of weeks* in the planning, I unveil Everybody loves Eric Raymond.
You’ll only get it if you’re a Linux geek and it’s very high brow. Except for the geek wrestling.
In case my non-geek readers are interested, Eric Raymond is an “open source” advocate. He’s wheeled out by various big companies once in a while to legitimize their forays into open source software. He’s also a gun nut. In fact, just a bit of a nut in general.
Richard Stallman is the creator of the Free Software movement. His emphasis is very much on software freedom which he thinks is very important. He is described as rather eccentric in real life.
Both Raymond and Stallman (or esr and rms, as they are known) are basically fighting the same battle, but they differ on the freedom issue (and probably the gun stuff).
Linus Torvalds is the guy who first created the Linux kernel (now developed by thousands of geeks worldwide). I think he tries to keep out of the politics of it all.
I’ve put them all in a house together without their wives/girlfriends/whatever. Drawing takes me way too long so I’ve done some very subtle and clever photo manipulation, which involves sticking their heads on my friend’s bodies. I’m also lazy so this isn’t done very well. Anyway, enjoy it or don’t.
