Andras Mantia wrote explaining his view of the distributed development model.

I agree with what he says.

It seems that the quanta project (actually the whole kwebdev thing) is a good
example of how distributed processing is best done:

1.  Everybody works on the bit they are interested in.
2.  Everybody shares a common interface and COM(munication) system.
3.  Anybody may make a report (bug, enhancement, etc.) and the person getting
the report must first figure out which team is responsible.  Then, if
resources permit, he forwards to the right team.

But in low funded projects, we (users, having great benefit for low cost) must
help the communications by forwarding our report to the right team.

We trust that Andras sends us to the correct team (like kate, for the current
example).

Tires are a weak parallel because autos are not open systems, though
enthusiasts might change to Pirellis or Dunlops if they fit the Ford.  The car
makers seem to adopt more responsibility, in exchange for more profits.

We really want the kate ppl to handle kate issues because they're the experts
on the editor involved.  Any changes to indenting behavior would necessarily
be theirs to manage!
