Im sleepless tonight...
And im starting a new job in the morning.

But im dreaming here.
And I have to say this outloud.
Or post as the case may be.

Im thinking about how crazy the idea is...
of a bunch of seemingly individual unconnected dreamers could over time
become what is emerging as linux.

Im thinking about how crazy people told them they were to believe something could ever even exist let alone function.

And so Im having visions of repositories of the gospel.
Of an open source church. Who is divorced from the proprietory model of the world. Who have accesable and free sorces of everything needed to watch a Kingdom grow. Victories, Songs, Hopes, Dreams, ways of overcoming obstacles...all available for the price of salvation.

Im thinking that Jesus is the Kernel.

Im thinking that the Holy Spirt is a dreamer.

Im thinking that I want to be one who thinks and sees that anything is possible.

Well, after the protestant wave, practically Christianity is already open source:

"Everybody are free to build their own distribution"

For me, I think it is time to streamline the many distributions and concentrate on few core distribution to have a strong community.
