"Coming from CivicSpace, where we had a beautiful website before we had working code, to working on Flock, where the mockups never quite matched the software that was released, I feel like I've seen enough of these fruitless cycles to take for granted that design and open source development are simply incompatible, or, to be clear: the expectations that one has with open source software development cannot be the same expectations that one has for open source interface/interaction design."

--Chris Messina, writing about problems with open source design
