In a recent Slack discussion, someone said: "The problem with open source contribution is that it privileges those who have time to do it." First, that's the opportunity of open source, not the problem. Second, everyone has the time—and I would say the civic duty if they use it—to contribute something. And last: Yeah, that's right. It's just like people who have the time to play clubs and pubs every Friday night and practice their chops in their bedroom are privileged to be able to be discovered by an A&R talent scout and get a record deal.
