Typo... *yawn*. You knew what was intended. Feel free to comment on the
typo, but calling the statement nonsensical when the meaning was easy to
ascertain suggests you're either stupid or trolling. I'll presume the
latter, but feel free to correct me if it's the former.

You implied it.

Don't confuse pursuit of happiness and personal satisfaction as hubris.
They are quite different and you can't glean hubris simply from reading
that someone wants to write their own framework. You are jumping to
conclusions.

I have no problems with the philosophy of free software, but I do have
issues when someone suggests that we should all follow, like sheep to
the slaughter, a particular worldview. What you "_would_ like" and what
you "will get" is entirely up to individual in question.

You presume the use of SourceForge to host such a project. Granted, you
probably meant "Yet Another Soon To Be Neglected Project", but that
doesn't excuse you from once again presuming it will be neglected. A
project used by *1* person, no matter how useless YOU think it is, is
not neglected by that person. Popularity hardly constitutes a
measurement of quality.

People can and do shop around when they want to. This should not stop
anyone who wants to create their own project from doing so. People have
free will, biases, opinions, ideas, goals and as such can pursue
fulfilment as they please. While it can be nice that they might
contribute their bright ideas to some other project, they are in no way
obligated to do so. If their ideas are bright enough then chances are
they will attract their own following.

Maybe so, but much science and many breakthroughs are still done by the
lone inventory/researcher. You cannot discount the merit of one person's
contribution because you think they should have another work
style/ethic.

Actually from the OP's statement I see that he wants clues on how to
start a FRAMEWORK, not clues on how to start a PROJECT. If he wanted you
to infer another intent he probably would have used another set of
words. And if he did mean PROJECT instead of FRAMEWORK then he should
have stated so since given no other context we can only know what he has
written... all else is conjecture. It's possible I missed something
though, perhaps invisible font text *uhuh uhuh*, and there really is the
word "project" in the OP's post. I'd appreciate you pointing it out to
me.

Cheers,
Rob.
