I really do not want to waste my time on topics like this. I spent lot ofenergy
for nothing. I just would like to stress this:
* I fitted very well into OpenSolaris community* I fitted very well into
NetBeans community* I fitted very well into GNOME community
On all those three communities I contributed code on a voluntary basis.(as you
could see I do not use @company_name email but @public_email_name)Another thing
that is important for me is that I started to learn XWinSysand Gallium and
found very little documentation about that.
Only persons that wanted to help me were SUN engineers. Then I started todig
who is actually contributing something into source code base and I sawthat
majority (more than 95%!) of email are @some_company. I started tothink that
I'm only person on this world who is spending my spare time tocontribute
something without demanding anything for that. Even some personsasked me on IRC
if I work for SUN (!?). If you remember when I contacted youvia IRC I asked you
mostly how to develop radeon drivers and about overallDRI architecture. We
chatted about two hours and that was all.
After that you just did not want to spend time giving me hints. Then Irealized
that maybe the best option is to ask you for job or any othercompany. In that
case, maybe I'll receive more information since I'd workon some specific
project. Obviously, it was mistake. I'll not discuss onthis topic anymore.
All I could say - ok guys stay close and I wish you best!
