Here is the exact quote from another emailed you penned....
Hey, here's a thought: if some of these people with cool ideas had
sat down for six months and fixed a bunch of bugs in the existing
code, they might have some currency to play with when it comes to
determining how other coders spend their time. But please don't treat
that as an "xyz hoop".
Indeed. And your quotation of it out of context made it seem exactly
like an "xyz hoop" (a term defined by you in an earlier bit of the email
that you didn't quote), which is precisely what I said it wasn't.
My point was that people who contribute code and fixes and become part
of the community normally have more say over the direction of the
project and what gets done. This is true of any free software project.
So does this mean Verisign and or others offered help with general code
for 6 months or not, and if not why do they get special treatment over
other peoples suggestions?
You are treating it as an "xyz hoop".
