Real Programmers don't comment

Open source projects have comments

Therefore:

Real Programmers don't work on Open Source Projects

OR

There is at least one non-real programmer on many Open Source Projects

Well, that's that myth busted. Well done Black Duck!

Sad to see how few people use the truly open BSD, MIT, Apache or LGPL licenses (or even that old standby, the public domain declaration).

Sad to see so much politicization of something supposedly given freely.

We're going to need a bigger wall to stand people against when the revolution comes.

We can shoot the javascript 'programmers' along with 'HTML programmers' because theyre usually the same people :)

But I suppose XP hasn't caught on in open source circles, because it sounds too much like an operating system?

And most of the comment lines I've seen in open source java code were the reams and reams of blurb that supposedly represents license and copyright information at the top. So please recount java code from the curly bracket following the class declaration to its matching closing one.

Paris, cos no comment

So all this software I've been using was written by /imaginary/ programmers?

Cool!

Can I imagine up a whole bunch to work on cool new Plan 9 projects for me?

"So all this software I've been using was written by /imaginary/ programmers?"

Yes, but in order to represent their numbers you would need a two dimensional plane...
