others involved in OFBiz because I feel bad about not contributing as
much or being as involved as I used to... or at least not directly. I
remember walking with Hans Bakker in Phuket, Thailand in 2004 and him
expressing how strongly he felt about how usually it is more valuable
to get someone else to do something than to do it on your own. Since
then I've been trying to figure out how and when to do that, and along
with the other people investing in the Hotwax organization this is
really happening.
I agree with Hans - there is only so much one person can do. There has to be a
time when you train others to do what you do and spread the work around.
It's not like your current participation has dropped off. Instead, you have
planned for it by helping to get more committers on board, and like you said -
your trainees are contributing work that you would normally do yourself. So,
your participation is still just as strong, only now it's more indirect.
I've found your comments and suggestions very helpful. Your participation (even
when limited) continues to keep the rest of us "on track."
