Here's jtaby about twenty minutes earlier:

> Everyone today wants to get the personal glory out of their own little pet project instead of getting the glory out of contributing important patches to existing projects.

Talking point much?



Not a talking point, we just have a lot of conversations about this at the office :)


The diminutive "little pet" prefix at one point applied to: linux kernel, kde, gnome, jquery, prototype.js, node.js, ruby, &etc. Your dismissal of small, young projects is akin to saying "Don't start a startup, just join a big business!"

You're calling out to people in the Bazaar and asking them to join your Cathedral. Good luck!
