Linus Torvalds announces Linux (1991)
Although I’ve read this probably a dozen times. What I think about this today, as I’m about to reviel my next project is that it’s so crazy how things evolved for open source. Nowadays people compete with companies and having an announcment like this usually includes :- website explaining as a pitch what is better about your software- ready to use examples and templates to support your claim- branding with a logo that makes you look more professional- issue tracker- github repository ( even mirror of yours )- bugfree software ready for production from day one.And many more which I probably miss.Writing something “cool” nowadays is not enough to be taken from the folks seriously.
