From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No thanks. I don't want nor need to be in the club. Nor will I ever go out of my way to show people that I'm "worth having around" in my free time. I don't think that's healthy.
If they don't see my worth or I am actually worthless to have around I'll search for someplace else. Like I said already: I have never had that problem in any other project.
Also I don't feel entitled to have my patches merged. I can maintain them myself if necessary.
If you think there's a problem, you should report it.
Gotta stick around to find out.
