Couch is ASF project, ASF is sum of all its committers, so...
- olliesaunders 14y agoYes but he talks about how it was the initial 3 contributors of Couch that created the culture that is so important to the quality of the community they currently have.
- hrabago 14y agoHe's comparing the experience of being an open source project under ASF to that of being a free software advocate for gnu.org. This is when he mentions loving the community more than the code.
- bhaisaab 14y agoExactly. Maybe we can learn from ASF in that regard and pull in some of the philosophy to opensource orgs such as the GNU, the Linux, the VideoLAN of the worlds; in my experience, you don't get much love as a newbie in most of those projects (in comparison)
- Evbn 14y agoHuh,I always thought of FSF/GNU as retirement homes for ancient projects more than code more than active coding. I have contributed code to ASF but I don't even know where to look for the repos and bug trackers. But grep and emacs feet occasional releases, so maybe my observation is of the effect, not the intent.
