[Blog] AMSAT-BB versus every Linux mailing list
https://spacecomms.wordpress.com/2018/01/12/amsat-bb-versus-every-linux-mail...
"On AMSAT-BB, people ask for someone to call them on the phone and walk them through things. And people actually do it. On Linux and other open source mailing lists, when people ask basic questions they’re told to “read the f*cking manual, noob.”

Very good article John!
I can +1 on the responsiveness of some ham radio software developers. Utterly amazing they do what they do, and barely ask for anything in return!
