You tell ‘em!
Mark Shuttleworth: A great man for the linux community. Without him, we wouldn’t have a wonderful distro such as Ubuntu. He has provided a ton of ideas and helpful pushes to help Linux hit the desktop and hit it hard. In a conference with a bunch of other Linux leaders, he pushed to get everyone to work together on squishing bugs and getting patches out faster. Also to give a central location to discuss problems on projects. This is THE idea that should be out there. I mean there are TONS of distros out there, as well as multiple applications that do the same thing. He wants to get the community together for those working on apps for gnome and KDE to talk to each other so to combine projects or at least help them design the projects faster due to problems run into by one developer is probably gonna get run into by another developer. I whole heartedly would love to see this become a reality. There are lots of hands to help, but each on is in a different kitchen and no one is helping each other.
Go Mark! You Tell ‘em!
