Respectfully, it is better not to criticize open source developers and maintainers publicly if you want more/better open source software. Everyone gets frustrated and at a certain point people take their toys and go home.
- davidw 16y agoCriticism is fine, as long as it's respectful and constructive, which were two things that were in very short supply in Zed's Debian rant. Also, Zed writes: > I also don't make money on these systems, or I pay for them, and I contribute back extensively. So don't compare me to the likes of Meebo and Twitter. Debian makes no money on its systems, and contributes back extensively too in many cases. So comparing it to the likes of Microsoft and asking for people to "attack" it was really uncalled for.
