NP Rank:
Software Project Blue's
I have been involved in three software projects, two are my own and one is with a set of people that is in fact very on par with my own. When asked to join the project I was very interested as the software being used for development was one I wanted to review. But being the guy I am I am very solid and meant to scrap my own software projects and dedicate my time to theirs.
A year or two ago I had wanted to review the software but it was time consuming to set it up on my server. These internet 2 open source applications seem to be made as complicated as possible so the developers need to buy fixes. Nothing actually comes free with out some complications to make you buy. The problem is the front end logon script is full of errors, I was willing to pay for the upgrade (the con fix) as I really wanted the project to leap off early next year.
But when anyone is rude to me I always step back and see if what I am doing is worth such rudeness. Well on digging deep into the online site rules and regulations I noted, they had geared their project to make money to sell the site if it came popular. The problem is I am completely against that. So the guy being rude about fixing a password problem on their administration forum actually did me a favor.
I will remind myself in future to check out everything before I dive through that door and aid anybody in future. Still I got to review the software and its problems are just the same as other free packages.
So now I will buy my software that’s already running on a host for my two projects it saves the headaches. The best boss is also myself something I learned a long time ago but temporary forgot.

The moral is never get involved before you read all the paper work.

BF that's true for almost everything you undertake. Software is often like the Amazon, a river with no return. In the end, one is never old enough to learn something new.
