Introduction to the Open Source Technology Group (OSTG)

Translation: One Leo (一土), ShiningRay

History: The predecessor of OSTG was OSDN, which stands for Open Source Development Network. Even in its early days as a pioneering tech network called Andover.net, it was deeply rooted in the technology community. Established in 1996 with the mission of providing balanced content, communication areas, and business opportunities for the Linux and open source communities, Andover.net significantly enhanced its community engagement and popularity by adding community-focused discussion sites like Slashdot and freshmeat.net for its technical groups, as well as ThinkGeek and AnimationFactory.com for its e-commerce division.
