Re: Sounds like a Mental Health Institution
There's as much crap in OSS as in commercial software, but for different reasons. Most software isn't good, merely good enough. Commercial software must be good enough for someone to buy. OSS projects must be good enough to do whatever their author needed them to do.
The one difference (the original point here) was that the commercial world may kill off perfectly 'good' (and in some cases really excellent) software for non-technical reasons without giving users the opportunity to decide what was crap and what was good.
