In my time in LEC, it was possible learn a lot of technologies and much about Free Software development, witch I adopted as a life philosophy. Those happen because I could identify many dreams that I had when was a kid into the possibilities presented by community, first as fun possibility and now as a reward of life. I have participated of the Free Software Forum - FISL since 2004, and the last year I had the opportunity to meet with the Jim Gettys, John Palmiery and Tomeo, witch increased my interest in the Sugar development.
