James Hall: Open source software in the real world
,----[ Quote ]
| After the release of "1.0" in 2006, I became
| completely hands-off. I no longer submitted
| patches to programs, I no longer wrote code
| for my own programs. FreeDOS had grown to the
| point where I no longer needed to be the
| expert. Others were pushing FreeDOS to do more
| things than I had ever dreamed possible in
| 1994, and I was glad to see it happen.
|
| Each maintainer must similarly find his or her
| own motivation, and recognize that reasons for
| staying in a project may change. And that's
| okay.

| The project has been running ever since Microsoft said it would abandon the
| operating system when it moved to Windows 95. That was the Vole's claim at
| the time, anyway. However, it didn't really abandon DOS in Windows 95, but
| just hid it under the covers.
