Today, for me, is one of those days with dark thoughts (for orther reasons mainly, but some of them related).
Even when I am like that, I try to believe in some goodness that arises when sharing the pain. The same as when somebody posts in pump.io about migraine, and others answer “same here”. It does not make the migraine go, but it heals a bit somehow.
So let me share the sadness with you, as a Debian contributor that applied to be a non-uploading DD one month ago (and is kind-of-scared since she subscribed to -project and began to have a look at -devel from time to time, although she saw messages that touched her heart, too).
I'll let some time pass, and then, think again, or maybe just take my list of pending translations and go on without thinking too much. Or maybe nothing. I suppose you've done this many times (let some days pass, and then rethink). I would like to ask you to do it once more… after having a look to contributors.debian.org and what it represents, and consider that project can evolve when we consider this wide active community, now that becoming DD for those people is possible and beginning to take momentum.
I hope that if you finally leave, you keep an eye in Debian somehow. We can be better than today, and I'm sure we'll be. I hope I survive my doubts and help that happen. Then you and many others rejoin, and many others discover us.
Thank you for the time, work and love you put in Debian, anyway.

I'm not sure why… I find these big donations a bit disturbing, the same as when a non-related VC funds a project or small company. I know it's not the same, but…
Wishing the best to the FreeBSD community.

I guess they can merge stuff back from MacOS & iOS then. Both are BSD-based these days. A cool million can help open doors at Apple to do that perhaps.

Russ Allbery on what the result of the Debian init system coupling GR means: https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2014/11/msg00079.html - I very much like this interpretation.

Jan Koum on donating $1,000,000 to FreeBSD...
Last week, I donated one million dollars to the FreeBSD Foundation, which supports the open source operating system that has helped millions of programmers pursue their passions and bring their ideas to life.
I’m actually one of those people. I started using FreeBSD in the late 90s, when I didn’t have much money and was living in government housing. In a way, FreeBSD helped lift me out of poverty – one of the main reasons I got a job at Yahoo! is because they were using FreeBSD, and it was my operating system of choice. Years later, when Brian and I set out to build WhatsApp, we used FreeBSD to keep our servers running. We still do.
I’m announcing this donation to shine a light on the good work being done by the FreeBSD Foundation, with the hope that others will also help move this project forward. We’ll all benefit if FreeBSD can continue to give people the same opportunity it gave me – if it can lift more immigrant kids out of poverty, and help more startups build something successful, and even transformative.

I am quoted in the above article as saying I would be buying a ThinkPenguin router soon, and now I have!
