Fosdem SystemTap Interview

Did an interview for FOSDEM about SystemTap. It discusses a wide range of topics. About when I got involved with Free Software, working for Red Hat, how FOSDEM helped the libre Java community, getting Fedora more observable by adding static markers into programs, the history of observation tools (tracers, profilers, debuggers) on GNU/Linux, comparisons to other tools like DTrace, GUI frontends, Eclipse integration, the future of SystemTap and of course why you should come to FOSDEM.
