The Role of a Nonprofit In Open Source Development
jrepin writes KDE is among the biggest open source projects which continues to innovate and evolve with the changing times. Often we have seen this particular community create technologies ahead of its time which were later adopted by other projects. The Linux Foundation talked to Lydia Pintscher, the president of the KDE e.V., the nonprofit organization that oversees the legal and financial aspects of the KDE project, to understand the relationship between the community and the organization. We also discussed the challenge of recruiting more women to open source projects and women in the KDE community.
Why?
How about asking about the challenges of recruiting more GUI designers, or more programmers, or more QA testers, or more of some group KDE specifically needs more of. Why ask about women?
It's almost like there's some sort of additional agenda beyond just interviewing the KDE folks....
The party of stupid and the party of evil get together and do something both stupid and evil, then call it bipartisan.
Did you know that KDE doesn't have a *SINGLE* Pima Indian developer? Not *ONE*! What is being done to attract more Pima Indians to the KDE development community? And why hasn't KDE made ANY efforts to reach out to the Pima Indian community to encourage young Pima Indians to become KDE developers?
SJW's don't eliminate discrimination. They just expropriate it for themselves.
How about if we worry more what's between people's ears and not so much about what's between their legs?
Um that's entirely the point. The trouble is that the rest of the world does, in fact, seem to care more about genetalia than anything else.
and I'm sure we need to start throwing some bucks at diversity efforts for the sexes in these industries
Go ahead. Or do you actually mean that other people should do the legwork while you whine on the internet?
SJW n. One who posts facts.
