Linus tells about 5 experience that manage software project
August 10, 2008
This week is some earlier moment, linus Torvalds told about him in CIO.com is the developer solidarity Linux that how lets come from whole world each district all round the biggest project opening a source on this generation bound, in light of interested friend.
Seek the person that is worth you to trust: My principle is to seek OK and trustful person hard, let them let go next go working. I am not to say termless reliance, once I make someone responsible,maintain a certain project nevertheless, this person can have the capacity that handles very day-to-day work certainly.
Let oneself become authentic: I make I become the honest person in others memory hard. The point of view that the person all round understands me and I all the time importunate footing, although people is mixed to these viewpoints,footing likes not completely occasionally or approve of, but at least everybody feels I am to be able to trust.
Honest — although be painful honesty sometimes: I won’t grudge conveys my passion. So certain person did big hooey, I am criticized can ruthlessly, is not tell diffidently over only, if people does not know that pattern,certain problem has many serious, I have much attention.
Want method lets someone else express an opinion: Occasionally I must admit ” I became wrong ” , this kind of state of affairs is too little nevertheless, because people always is too ” courtesy ” , or be awed and my authoritative position frightens their opinion ran. So I thought a way: In the commment to others code I often so write ” you make size one fool! Your this patch is a what broken toy! Wizard can be used! The reason is. . . Hey, perhaps fool is me, can nevertheless you do a pretty explanation to prove you are right? Hum! “. At that time more people dispute with respect to meeting and me, those who prove a fault is me, actually I am hypocrisy calls ” of their ” fool only.
Integrity and honesty generate the best code in Linux: Anyhow from theoretic say, the sense of reality that lets developer understand me suffers always be close friends than rejecting their code suddenly one day. More important, do not say to them because of feel embarrassed face this is sodden code, bring about accepted these sodden code finally.
