Hi all,

I understand that a lot of you develop for free software and are 
passionate at what you do.  But how do you pay the bills?  What do you 
do for a living?  Are you a student?  Do you do software development 
just as a hobby, or do you want to make a living doing this kind of work?

The reason I ask this is because I am curious about what kind of 
backgrounds a free software developer has.  As for me, I am a student 
majoring in Music and minoring in Computer Science.  I got the idea of 
writing this email, actually, because Google had an internship panel at 
my school.  Google just loooooves open source and those involved.  It 
sounds like Google has quite a friendly and cooperative working 
atmosphere, and they treat their employees very well.  Yeah, I'd like to 
work for Google, but who doesn't right? :)

-Kris
