What?

Not Invented Here

I wonder if waynesonfire will ever return to elaborate on what the mean exactly by that.

I'm not really sure how 'Not Invented Here' applies to someone building an OSS project.

I dont have to elaborate. It's my interpretation of your reasoning. Nothing wrong with OSS or your desire to build something.

That's fine, but generally people on use that expression in a negative way, so I think it's reasonable to ask for explanation of why you think that.

In general I don't think it's fair to leave drive by comments like that without elaboration, as others might just see it and take it at face value when further clarification might reveal a misunderstanding.
