No Permission Needed: Contribute Without Fear

,----[ Quote ]
| This came up in Randal Schwartz's keynote 
| and in Amber Graner's talk about her work with 
| Ubuntu, as well as some of the "hallway track"
| during the fest. Talk to any successful contributor,
| and you'll find someone who has been motivated enough to
| jump in without waiting for an invite. Look at any 
| successful and healthy open source project, and you'll
| find that it's a permissive culture that invites 
| fearless contribution.
