Free might be the wrong word....

I mean, in this world, there are things more important motivating factors than money.... Genius developers like you or MAG, or volunteers like our Council members are not doing this job for money, but the happiness or bonding they feel in a community...

Putting a price tag to that feeling is demeaning in my opinion....

that i believe is the whole fundamental ideal of FOSS - to engage in a hobby that is socially productive in terms of software....

I might not be a developer, but i do spend time here discussing ideas and testing stuff etc. tomorrow should i expect some cents in my bank??


----------------------------
thats why i asked him to stop this discussion, this leads to nowhere....

i hope the above explanation gets into head atleast
