I'd like to try to open some minds (and maybe change some attitudes) here with the aim of helping to accelerate this process. I've spent too long in the past arguing about FOSS ideology in the past and these days would rather be coding. I hope all we share a community orientation (though we may argue about the meaning of freedom). I will try to avoid being drawing into ideological arguments. Please help me to do :-) I expect to jump in a little bit more actively with the hope of correcting misunderstandings early I speak for no one but myself Would this all be okay with everyone? FWIW I've never been paid to code FOSS and currently my life today revolves around recovering from a serious injury (before you ask, it's much improved allowing me to do stuff like this :-) Robert [1] http://robertburrelldonkin.name [2] http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/robertburrelldonkin [3] http://robertburrelldonkin.me.uk/ [4] http://itstechupnorth.me.uk -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to steering-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/steering-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
