### What happened to NetBSD Desktop Project |
|
|
|
Simply put, it didn't take off. |
|
|
|
Don't complain. This is volunteer project, and most of us work on it in our free time. |
|
|
|
In addition there's too much controversy around this Desktop Project, |
|
everyone has his own vision of what it should be. |
|
|
|
If you want to help with it, you have to work on it yourself. |
|
At last, this is what most of us do with respect to other projects. |
|
|
|
If you have some clear vision what is useful, |
|
and you understand what you can do about it, |
|
you can try contacting me. |
|
All I can promise is some passive help with it, it is all for now, |
|
but it should be enough for you, if you're really going to help. |
