Welcome to the Ministry of Frag!

We're a fine example of that rare beast: a commercial enterprise based on the efforts of the Open Source movement. Free and open source software is one of the most incredible examples of how a spirit of community and co-operation can bring benefits for everyone involved, and we as many others have begun to feel that its rise is an inevitable demonstration of the best side of humanity and a real cause for hope in the future of information technology. But it's not without its drawbacks, and one of the most common issues that arise is the relative difficulty of raising money for resources, such as pizzas and coffee. In response to this problem, Ministry of Frag website was set up in December '08 by a few open-source game enthusiasts (that's us!) to bring a little tangible recognition to those guys who worked so hard to bring us the products we love for free.

Here at the Ministry of Frag, we believe that supporting the efforts of those in the Open Source movement is one of the most important things that people who enjoy OSS can do. However, we know as well as anyone that it can be hard to justify a straight-up donation to a project, and sometimes we just want something in return! Well, through buying Ministry of Frag products, you can help support the projects we partner with! 25% of sales go directly to the projects themselves, while the rest go towards producing more merchandise and supporting future Open Source projects – and, in return, you get some swanky, high-quality merchandise that advertises your favorite projects! Everyone wins!
