Who ever said that? Please don't read your own whatever into what is being said. I know I, for one, don't really care what your opinion is on what Donnie said, and would rather focus on what he actually said. Gentoo developers work on Gentoo because they get something out of it. Period. Some developers do it solely out of the joy they feel by helping users. Some developers do it solely to improve Gentoo for their own use. Both of these developers are just as "selfish" in that they work on Gentoo because of what it bring to them. Remember that we're not paid. This means that everyone here has some motivation, besides money, that keeps us here. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation --=-ugXEhX9sQLKDXxGkSZ0f Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBGm+3pkT4lNIS36YERAhkJAJ9oj0vdrkO2zPSs9IC15BML6rxijgCfdaGa 5L+Bnvk49nsDIZB5EYl0//Q= =GcXp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-ugXEhX9sQLKDXxGkSZ0f-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
