This section used to be called "Maintainers".

Well, what are maintainers in #FreeSoftware realms other than engineers working deep in the belly of the ship in the engine room, among oil and soot? It shouldn't be that way, and we can make #FOSS sustainable once we realize how can all work and cocreate better in grassroots environments.

#Gardening is a great analogy. Projects aren't 'dead' for instance when unmaintained. They may be just 'good enough' or value merely disperses, like in Nature.

Meme of governator Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2 giving the thumbs up 👍 Text says: "As a gardener I approve this message"

@smallcirclesjust small circles 🕊 kinda love the idea of FOSS compost. Using old open-source project code to nurture a new one.
