I bought in the market and kept on the fridge..
One day I was going to heat some left over chicken and decided that .. well.. lets jut use one for kicks..


That was hot!.. but now no pepper is enough.. I can eat an abnormal high amounts of pepper and wont feel a thing.

Next morning I searched for the scotch bonnet, little less hot than habanero but not that much..

Latter I found this recipe

it uses:
# 500g Shin Beef - cut into 2cm cubes
# 454g Spinach - trimmed
# 225g unshelled Prawns

more than 1 kg of food for only

# 1 Scotch Bonnet pepper

I used one pepper for a one person serving

Following Wine development thru their weekly newsletter one can see the commitment of Corel to the Wine Project in the patches constantly sent. It can be seen that Corel is commited to make Wine a better product.

Unfortunately, the same does not happen with either the Debian Project or the KDE Project, where you took their product, made a better product out of them and released back the finished products. In Free Software jargon, what you made is a fork.

Now, although Corel has released the source code to the enhanced forked products (as you were legally bound to, by the GPL), the enhancements made cannot be easily folded back into the respective projects because these projects have evolved since Corel's fork. So the original projects cannot immediately profit from the work Corel's engineers put on them.

Also, because the Free Software programmers are already commited to the original projects, Corel's forks won't benefit much from the Free Software advantages of constant peer review and bug fixes.

So, my question is: What was the motivation behind the decision not to fully cooperate in a Bazaar way with Debian or KDE projects but enhance them in a Cathedral way? At first I thought the answer was that Corel just didn't understand Open Source projects, but after seeing your comendable cooperation with the Wine Project I am now puzzled. Could it be that you needed a shipping product fast and could not afford to follow their release cycles?

And now that Corel Linux has seen the light of day, does Corel intend to work on folding its enhancements back into the original projects or will you keep on with the forking, thereby forfeiting most benefits from Open Source development model?

I understand that a question similar to this one was asked during your keynote speech at TheBazaar and your answer to it involved equating the number of download attempts of Corel Linux to the success and acceptance of your distribution, to which I am inclined to reply that such a high number of downloads is a good gauge of the amount of curiosity Corel Linux managed to gather or, at most, of the quality of your programmers, but not of the success of Corel in cooperating with the comunity.
