  1. contributors not listed as developers on Open Source Developed by Individuals, Not Large Groups · · Score: 1

    For my buddies OSS project (Ilohamail) he is the only developer listed on Sourceforge but he has quite a few contributors. He has a forum where people contribute ideas and report bugs. He also has five or six people who have translated his program into different languages for him. This shows that though there may only be a few core developers there are often many other contributors to open source projects.

  9. Re:Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill on Ransom Love on United Linux, SCO Unix · · Score: 1

    Uhhh, doesn't that happen all the time. It isn't Home Depot that goes out of business. With the competition that the big guy creates usually only one little guy survives. Some people like the little guy but there isn't usually room for many little guys. Only a select number of people are willing to accept the possible higher prices, lower convenience or whatever drawback of the small guy.
