Even if developers or programmers work in the same building or in cubicles next to each other, they should resist the temptation of having conversations in person because the information from these conversations will never reach the volunteer community. Intentionally organizing a distributed company is one way that this can be approached by companies working on projects with volunteers. Implementing such a structure was an intentional decision made by Canonical Ltd. in hiring developers and structuring development. Ubuntu maintains no closed lists and makes all development, design, and government decisions in open forums and, due to is distributed nature, is exceptionally transparent for a project incorporating a large body of paid labor from a single company. =E4=CF=CC=CF=CA =C6=C9=D2=CD=D9! --k4f25fnPtRuIRUb3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD4DBQFDQu/RfBKgtDjnu0YRAp9lAJ0YEE1DbrquxPiSNmD81pZWcqs4ZwCY11iO EGusgrer6hE/Cqas+UemFQ== =gK+U -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --k4f25fnPtRuIRUb3--
