They contribute by giving e.g. medical help to children in the Third World. It would be nice if they don't need to use Apple or Microsoft, but instead could use a Linux that works OOTB. They don't contribute by maintaining Linux, they don't have knowledge how to maintain a tool such as a computer, but they contribute to the human race. Everything that goes around, comes around ;). It's narrow-minded to limit the cycle to Linux only. :p _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
