Earlier today I gave a presentation at the Technical University Berlin about things you need to know, things you should expect and things you shouldn’t expect when your are aspiring to become a successful Free Software Hacker.

I have put my slides up on Google Docs in case you are interested, either because you are the target audience (i.e. a university student) or because you need inspiration for a similar talk about the same topic.

The first two slides are in German language, so skip over them. The interesting bits are all in English. I hope it’s quite comprehensive (though of course terse). Enjoy:

In case your feed reader/planet messes this up, here’s the non-embedded version (https://docs.google.com/present/view?id=dd4d9j2z_1r8fjkqc7).

Oh, and thanks to everybody who reviewed and suggested additions to the the slides on + (https://plus.google.com/115547683951727699051/posts/UqNgFiV3qTx).
