A software license doesn’t make software good.

Wren Reilly

Open source code written by a bunch of sexist, racist, ableist assholes is no viable alternative.

Free, libre, open source code is good when:

- there are design docs

- there are risk assessments

- there is user research

- accessibility is a requirement from the beginning

- it is private by design

- documentation is a part of every release

All of this is enabled by teams with a code of conduct, and no tolerance for assholes.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion is the key to all of the goals FLOSS projects claim to share.
