Food, Wine, and Linux may seem like a strange combination, but combining three passions can be a wonderful thing. I'm Marcel Gagné. Those of you who read Cooking with Linux, the multi-award-winning column that appeared monthly in Linux Journal magazine for 10 years, likely agree. With the help of my faithful waiter, François, Restaurant Chez Marcel serves up the finest in Linux and open source software paired with exceptional wines.
In that same spirit, this site features great Linux and Open Source software, ongoing wine tasting reports, recipes, and the occasional restaurant review. If you came here looking to read past Cooking with Linux columns, you'll find newer releases on the front page, a comprehensive list here and under the "CWL, The Column" menu link to the left. A votre santé! Bon appétit!

Much has been made of Mark Shuttleworth's keynote speech at Linuxcon as to whether his speech was sexist, demeaning to women, and whether it was a reflection of the man. Last week, I said Mark was a cool billionaire based on my own personal definition of 'cool billionaire'. Right now, Cirque du Soleil founder (and billionaire) Guy Laliberté is on board the International Space Station fulfilling one of my of my great personal dreams -- ah, to be that rich! If Guy Laliberté also happens to like Linux/FOSS, he's definitely cool in my books.
So after pointing this out about Mark Shuttleworth, it was brought to my attention, many times, that perhaps he wasn't so cool after all and that perhaps I should watch the video. So I did.
