In typical open source projects developers will be rushing enmass into the better structured version of the code. But not with this community.
The Bitcoin community is not based on 'sharing' and 'community' that one finds in other open source groups. Rather is is based on entirely the opposite 'hoarding' and 'exclusivity'. Where any alternative idea is shot down with the most violent of arguments.
It is the worse community I have ever been associatated with.
There are bright minds here and I learned a lot.
Bitcoin is special as mastering the code is becoming money and power without much indirection. Refactoring and alternate implementations are considered more of risk than a chance at community level.
At the project level BOP software is used to build services that would have been more difficult to build with satoshi.
I want to provide a good service to those customer and create more higher level products that convince others of the BOP platform.
Competing at the server level is at the moment an altruistic uphill battle. The open source code only attracted free rider and hater.
