о, молодцы, хрень про апстрим мира уже поправили.

Verhaegen как в воду за пару дней до этого смотрел:

Looking back, I cannot believe that i once thought that in open source software, code, design and doing The Right Thing, both technically and morally, were paramount. Open source software is about power, politics, corporate affiliation, and loads and loads of noise. Noise and misinformation always wins over code, no matter how good this code is or how hard you work at it. I have had to learn this several times over.
Good code simply has no chance in such an environment. Bad code and bad design tends to hang around for a long long time, and tends to influence (read, limit) the thinking of any new blood that turns up. On top of that, the bad mentality also tends to linger for many many years. Politics and noise continues to take precedence over code and design, for the foreseeable future.
