We are
developers(most of us)
Cool free software
What motivates us ?
millions use our
software(and other reasons)
Make the life of the
developers as easy as possible to bring the
software to the users.
How does it work at the
moment ?• Develop the application• Cross compile and package for all platforms • Put it on a webpage• Promote it on blogs, twitter, facebook, conferences, ...• Try to put it in a distribution• Wait 8 month • Hope that someone is using your stuff• Collect the bugs and feedback from the users• Go to square one for the next release.
