I've been watching this other very interesting thread started by @Roderick Young, when someone in the last post recommended that he looked at what C/C++ Open Watcom had to offer.
Anyway, what I found funny is the next to last paragraph in it's main page:
Activating yourself as a contributor in a Open Source project for the first time can be a frustrating experience. You may experience rude comments, irritation and anger from other participants and users, and other types of offputting surprises. Our advice is: be aware that it will happen sometimes, and be wise to the fact that the best way to handle it is to ignore it. Try not to engage in the same practice yourself. Be polite and ignore comments that are not polite to you.
I've seen that happening in this place from time to time... but it had never occurred to me that AAC is sort of another Open Source project, but with thousands of different subjects... and all of them with the same goal, to facilitate the learning of electronics... sort of an Open Source Electronics University...
And although I consider my presence here a rather small one, I'm proud to be a part of it.
My sincerest thanks to the owner, administrator and mods.
