    Rich guy?

    Presumably that is about Mitchell Baker… A woman… who was there since the beginning when the company was failing…

    The new CEO is also a woman and a temp CEO, who I’m guessing will again be replaced by an existing employee. Which guy are you referring to?

    What browser projects are you assisting with or donating to?

    Are you assisting with any open source projects at all?

    The biggest problem with the oss community is that as a developer, you need to accept always that you’ll get treated like absolute dirt by the community.

    I donated back when Firefox was in beta. They were a dying company back then.

    Are you saying open source developers shouldn’t be rewarded at all?
