IMO, cultural difference is just too great to even compare the two worlds. Open source contribution in India will evolve and adapt over time that suits our culture, the existing western style doesn't work very well in India. This is NOT a sad situation, just in Linus' opinion. The following quote from the interview are interesting, in a way, to indicate that attributing success of Linux to one man would be disrespectful to several others who have contributed in the last decade. "There are about 70-80 people that I come to meet here. And honestly I know about half of them pretty well. So there are almost 40-50 people I have worked with so long that I know what they look like, probably I know where they live, but, for every release there are a thousand developers." -- 0 _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
