15 years Foreman - Interview with Ohad Levy

FOCUS ON: Linux

#Foreman15

This year's July is special as we celebrate Foreman 15th anniversary! In addition to our (German-speaking) special we're thrilled to be joined by Ohad Levy, who started the Foreman project back then in 2009. Together with Enrico and Ohad we dig deep in the early project history. We also ask questions that our listeners have submitted.
