Marcel<br><br>This is not personal. Please understand why many see this the way they see it.<br><br>Every six months, we get the same arguments and we have long running threads to something that was hashed out before many times.<br>
<br>So, don&#39;t be offended. This list is normally low traffic and these discusses just get to some. <br><br>My advice: jump in and contribute, review patches, get immersed. And most importantly: Persevere.<br><br>Then revisit this issue in a year, and see if you changed your mind about how the community and open source works.<br>
