“I can’t claim to be the only one that came up with the nickname
[Penguinista]. Brent, a fellow Wordperfectionist, and I
independently created the nickname. I’ve been wanting to write an

soon, I figured now is good enough.
“I’m gratified that Penguinista is becoming more generalized
throughout the Alternative Software movement. Penguinista is
certainly a positive term that captures the movement’s
revolutionary spirit.”
