Staying on the cutting edge (The Age)Staying on the cutting edge (The Age)Posted Oct 8, 2004 18:26 UTC (Fri) by emkey (guest, #144)In reply to: Staying on the cutting edge (The Age) by neiljerram Parent article: Staying on the cutting edge (The Age)
I was primarily a lurker on the various BSD lists in final days before the creation of OpenBSD. Two things were clear to me at the time. One, Theo was a very difficult person to deal with and two, he was doing the vast majority of the work. Given that combination I found his expulsion (And from what I recall it was an expulsion) from the fold rather silly.
He may have been a pain to deal with but he was right more often then not and he didn't just talk, he got things done. And in an enterprise where nobody is getting payed that is worth dealing with a difficult personality.
