Remember that there is no single or homogeneous "Open Source community". It is an enormously huge, loosely coupled bunch of humans, each with their own goals, ideas and expectations. The few foundations we have don't cover more than just a small fraction of the Open Source done in the world made by millions of humans and some companies.

Don't expect the foundations to necessarily be on your side or view OSS like you do.

@bagder I would also argue that volunteer experts are not alone capable of making a compelling open source code base. Most of the toil is done by paid workers in successful open source projects.

@Basil404 @bagder Depends on what you consider "compelling".
