In my life, a few people tagged me as a geek but, believe me, they were
badly misguided.
And misguided I might be too, but I would appreciate if somebody told me
where my reasoning is wrong.

When I say that open source's landscape has changed a lot in the last year
or so, do you disagree? Though there will always remain people developing
for free because they believe in a project, don't you think that the trend
is going towards more paid developers for the desktop?

If I began filling all the reports that everybody here pretends they've
never seen, would this be enough to improve the situation, mainly that most
of the said bugs can't possibly have possibly escaped developers' screening?

 If you could take a few minutes and quote, out of my posts, one or two
paragraphs that you find fundamentally wrong, I would be very interested to
hear from you.

Nobody, and certainly not an outsider like me, can pretend possessing all
the solutions for open source today. So, we must try to talk together while
taking a look ahead.

Open source in the future won't be like open source in the past. We have to
deal with the new situation.
