> So for example, publishing source code of an implementation of an audio compression algorithm on GitHub is not shipping. On the other hand, a library with multiple versions, downloaded and used by hundreds of developers is a clear indicator of shipping behavior. My initial thoughts on this are that there are many us who are completely uninterested in spending time promoting our code. I'm fine with developing stuff and putting it up on github as an example of what I'm capable of doing, but promoting that code, getting other people involved and using it? That's marketing, not development.
