[time-nuts] Releasing sources (was Re: Brooks Shera)

[Lester Veenstra]

A suggestion on this topic, because I would like to encourage more open
source hardware and software publishing.

Start a discussion group associated with the publishing, possibly without
direct contact information on the author.   Then the end users can hold each
other's hand, helpful or misleading as that can be (we all see examples of
that every day), but it gives the adopter a feeling he is not alone with
what to the author or the rest see as blindingly obvious questions, while
keeping the original contributor out of the loop, unless he decides to chime
in under a true name or a pseudonym.
