Re: [Consortium] problem about inclusion of Ubuntu

Hi Dana, Jaromil was referring to Ubuntu a.k.a. Canonical Ltd. offering bounties, rather than your Ubuntu Studio project. I do think that there is bound to be a certain amount of friction within the free software community whenever money is involved. No different from any other human endeavour, then... I have only met Mark Shuttleworth once, and that was very brief, but I do believe his commitment to free software to be both significant and genuine. I also understand Canonical's need for some sort of structure or roadmap when paying bounties. However I can also see the potential for payments to hackers to be divisive, when so many people contribute their time for free. No-one's suggesting that - we're glad to have you on board. Cheers! Daniel
