Github is among the best things that ever happened to OSS. Compared to anything that came before, it is a pleasure to browse, it is intuitive, and it has managed to corral millions of people with vastly different backgrounds into a golden age of OSS productivity. In the 10 years+ before Github, I never even tried to contribute code–each project had its own workflow, and sending an email somehow felt intimidating. Today, spending an hour here or there to improve it slightly has almost become a guilty pleasure. So, I guess what I'm saying is: Thank you!
