Again, I as an unpaid volunteer don’t appreciate having my
time and effort converted into a for-profit enterprise before my public domain
efforts have reached fruition through DP. The end result is that I get
turned off of DP and go “solo” instead. When I go “solo”
I admittedly create works that are *somewhat* more buggy than DP claims
to make. The difference it that my efforts see the light of day this
month rather than three and a half years from now. When my NFP volunteer
efforts are used poorly then I find somewhere else to volunteer my time and
efforts. Why should DP care? Well, which “DP” are we
talking about? The DP made up of volunteers who get frustrated by the
inefficiencies and leave? Or the DP made up of lifers who don’t
want to see change?
