I was one of the first GRASS users in Italy (possibly the fourth or the fifth), back in 1994, and then added various other packages to my toolbox to manage geographic information.
At the end of 2007 I also produced an outreach video on free/open-source software. This was a lot shorter, but had very positive feedback by the OSGEO community: https://www.pibinko.org/riflessioni-sul-tematismo-on-free-open-source-geographic-information/
