I started out on the Open Source side and gradually moved over to the free software side.
Although at times I'm not sure either side fits anymore. Especially with the definition of freedom, and the desire to not acknowledge the political influences and ramifications of what we code and how we act within our communities.
I'm at a stage now where I distrust folks who are apolitical.
