LibreOfficeOur sense of meritocracy
A project that confuses meritocracy with the dominance of a single type of contributor fails to live up to its own values. And a project that bends to the interests of some contributors, at the expense of future generations, is a form of appropriation masked by the language of fairness.
Meritocracy is a complex, multifaceted concept that is worth grappling with in order to build something that future generations will be happy to inherit.
