Working in lock-step simply isn't a good idea. Never has been, never will be.

Github is an excellent hosting service; I have nothing against it at all.

I've tried it a couple of times over the years, mainly because the thing Ubuntu did so well was make Debian usable. I always felt that Debian was a pointless exercise because to me, the point of a distribution is to make everything easy. Easy to install, to be pretty and to be friendly and Ubuntu did that to Debian.

I am pragmatic. That which works, works, and theory can go screw itself. However, my pragmatism also extends to maintainability, which is why I also want it done well.

Nobody actually creates perfect code the first time around, except me. But there's only one of me.

I think people can generally trust me, but they can trust me exactly because they know they don't have to.
