I really hope you do take a step back and learn from all of this as to the proper way to go about building up legitimate, well deserved street cred in a world filled with unbelievably talented folks from all sorts of open and proprietary software walks of life. I know quite a few of the Apache developers, and have nothing but MASSIVE respect for them. The same is true about the nginx developers, the lighttpd developers, the IIS developers, and a list of million people and 1000's of project long who deserve the upmost respect for what they both have and continue to accomplish on a day to day basis in their respective field. You want an iconic figure to look up to and strive towards being even half the developer he is: http://www.google.com/search?q="Alvaro+Lopez+Ortega"; < 26,400 entries, each of which is related to something Alvaro has contributed in one form or another to the advancement of computer science. This man has earned his respect in this industry through the sweat of his brow. My guess is that you both can and will find your place and earn your respect. But the above approach is not the way. Please find something constructive to do with your talent. Thanks. -- /M:D M.
