summary

Argues that lowering barriers to contribution produces measurable collaboration: Git plus a single hosted point (GitHub) makes pushing changes simple, web edit on the website avoids installing tools, and accounts grow to 670,000 users. Shows rapid, concrete results — Homebrew accumulates over 2,000 forks in eight months, Rails ~1,300 forks, Node.js ~600 forks — demonstrating that lowering the dam and encouraging personal responsibility yields large, fast participation.
