This topic's just gone full chaos quite a while ago.
I'd love to read things without seeing people namely attacked or things
completly off topic.
Open source is a great ideal. But *today* it's a thankless ideal.
What about tomorrow ?
Either we quit this ideal and just go back 20years in the past (and if
we have to chose a closed proprietary market, I'd rather have those good
ol' big boxes full of stuffs rather than DRMs - which are both based on
the same economical model) or we find a way to get open source
developers rewarded. Rewarded socially, personally, and financially.
Solving that is the only way to stop escalating to the emotional level
at light speed.
And that'd be great.
Thanks.

Ad hominem remarks are usually a clear sign of not having
anything better to say.
FYI, Fons will very probably move to Germany in a few weeks,
to be employed as Senior Researcher by a *very* big, not
government funded and profit making corporation. How this
will affect my ability to stay active in open source audio
is still a matter to be discussed. But it's very well possible
that you will get rid of me, so start preparing the feast.
I'll eat my hat if Fons gives up open source development because he has to
commit all his personal resources to the Man.
