Be it yourself, a company or something else
If you think my working on something on my own time, on my own
equipment, without anyone asking me to prioritize things according to
their criteria is the same as a company paying me currency in exchange
for individual commits, have a blast... I don't see it that way, not
by a long shot.
he he, we all have, including you, received money for consulting
services due to our association and skillset gained from the ASF.
if someone offers you $$ to fix a bug, that is no different. Whether the
bug gets committed or not, has nothing to do with the $$,
it simply follows the ASF process.
Note that I'm not criticising those who do: I'm obviously aware of the
various types of working relationships we have here now and in the
past (Covalent, JBoss, Sun, IBM, Mortbay, etc.). I don't mind it at
all, it's an individual choice. I'm just saying not all of us are
funded in the same way.
no, but we all live in a monetary world, so unless we are trust fund
babies, money has to come from somewhere. if you don't like to call that
funding, fine, but its money, used for a purpose, in your case, pay for
your time and your equipment that allows you to work on ASF projects :)
