      the quote on your site:

      with this model there would no need for publishers at all. All profits would go to developers, the people who deserve the money and did the work. No need to spend on marketing or distribution either, ergo no need for publisher.

      Ha he sounds like every single minimum wage worker. "The CEO doesn't do any work", "those 'Fat Cat' executives that just sit in their offices while we do all of the hard work"

      Also, if you don't spend money on marketing or distribution, how the eff do people find out about your software? Am I the only one that doesn't comb through GitHub every morning when I wake up to find new free open source software?

      Seriously I've never done that, not once! I've gone to a few direct links.. 😛

        Yeah, the GNU/Linux people seem to have died off long ago. It was one of those big trends once upon a time.

        Richard Stallman died off? .... (joke)

        I swear, in EVERY conversation I've heard him engage, he spins the conversation into the naming (GNU/Linux... NOT Linux). I think in the flick Revolution OS he talked about it no less than 60 times.

          That movie also hinted at what a total psycho Eric S Raymond also is with his bizarre explosive behaviour. He's also pretty... pretty extremely sexist and actually not even really that technical, he's more like Stallman. What I do like is him complaining about Stallman, sometimes it's pretty funny what he writes and calls him out on.

            Tons of those people don't have any clue where work is done or who is putting in effort.

            Or the different kinds of effort required. The Marketing guys will have to put forth a whole different effort than the devs in the back corner, or the C-Level Suits at the top of the food chain.

              I don't remember him being explosive in that movie. Got any examples to refresh my memory?

                Well when the interviewer brings up that some people compare open source to communism, something that actually almost never happens in real life, his face turns bright red, he flips out and gives a very 1950s ice America view of life under Marxism. As someone from such a country, it was really strange. It did seem like he was trying to restrain himself.

                  American propaganda at its best.

                    Haha I forgot about some of those lines. Thanks for the refresh. Been a while since I've watched that flick.
