His post is bullshit, opensource software sucks for this reason ... its built by a bunch of hackers that don't know anything about interaction design or what customers want and need, don't know much about much of anything other than the technical. Its great when the users are all techies ... but in my opinion most of the desktop apps suck ... openoffice is a piece of shit. I totally agree with edw519 ... this guy just doesn't know what a product developer does or how to do it. Contrary to the elitist hacker opinion that these people don't know what they are doing ... effective, methodological product developer actually do contribute significantly to finding out what people want. A lot of programmers need to let go of their egos and realize that they are not know-it-alls.
