Mark proved his leadership again. A very nicely written article about fanboyism or fanaticism or tribalism (a fancy word tossed by him representing the distro fans).
http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/439 This is a must read for everyone. My software is better than yours does not mean your job is useless. It also does not mean everything you do is bad and all my things are good. Please read it carefully and try to understand it. This article is very important for now-a-days. As we have successfully made a strong field for the Open-source movement in Bangladesh, it is a must to know thyself. It is absolutely crucial to have a friendly environment to move forward our passion about Ubuntu, or Linux, or in broad sense the Open-source. The recent unfortunate mishaps that happened here is very misleading to the outer world. Therefore, we need to respect each other. Even in a red-hot debate it is possible to not take things personally. I love to argument on things. It is a learning process. However, this leaning process also requires some education. Mark's article can teach us a lot of things. It is not a long article. It is short and sweet. I hope we all will try to read it. Thanks. Nasim -- M.
