Distribution quote of the week
[Posted October 6, 2010 by ris]
Not cool. It's like you're getting kids under the drinking age all fired up
about a new club, and when they actually show up, they are bounced at the
door. How rude! If you're going to recruit folks like this to help Linux
out, Linux needs to be something they can be inspired by — something they
can actually use. Otherwise, why will they care? And for the few who either
are inspired already and see the potential, or who find out about free
software & culture on their own and have some interest in it, it's not
just that they have to gear up just to be able to join your project —
there's alternatives calling out to them that are more welcoming and far
easier to get started with.
