Start at Acquia on Monday

I start my new job on Monday at Acquia in Andover, MA. 10 minutes from my house! The business is based on an open source collaboration management system called drupal. Very excited about getting back into open source again. The developer's name who started drupal just over 7 years ago is Dries Buytaert and he lives in Belgium. He also works for Acquia and he's a pretty great guy with lot's of things to say about open source and collaboration systems as such. I'm impressed with everyone I meet at Acquia, I'm looking forward to integrating in.

Being open source, I can get started w/o waiting to get access to the code base. I can ask questions on mailing lists w/o trying to hook up w/current Acquia employees, I can buy books from the book store on the product w/o rumaging through outdated word docs in a server folder somewhere. Should there be any other style of development other than OSS (Open Source Software)?
