Individual Progress Updates
Mike
- Did some research and work on crowdsourcing as it related to the question of "1,000 contributors"
- Does answering the pros/cons of crowdsourcing really help us?
- Cons: Can add cost to the project
- For Fedora -- gets done less efficiently, possibly?
- Is the end product higher or lower quality?
- Seemed like a good question at the time, do not see need to pursue further--mike will add reasoning and bullets and close out topic
