Open Source Stamina

Read Original

This article discusses the factors that affect the 'stamina' of open source maintainers. It explains that motivation often comes from personal use of the project, and when that context is lost, it becomes difficult to maintain. The author argues that we should support maintainers and understand, not resent, them when they hand projects off to others.
