Right, and I'm glad there are projects serving The Cathedral, but I live in The Bazaar so I'm glad The Bazaar won.

The efforts to sell priest robes to fruit vendors were a little silly, but I'm glad they didn't catch on because if they had caught on they no longer would have been silly.

It's not a coincidence, it was called like that as a reference to facilitating distributed development.
