*What are the motivators for joining the community ?*

Rik - Using and improving, feels like I have a sense of ownership.
and that I am sharing that with thousands of people. This is a different
sense of value, feels like doing a job, but of course it is not.
Simon Q - Make sure that we have a friendly, ease to use , bug free linus
distro that can be custmised by people. I really like Plasma. This helps me
develop my skills.
