I strongly beleive in Free Libre open source software. I am a big fan of Ubuntulinux. I think it's success is related to how well it can tap into the potential of it's community. It is technically excellent as well as a fine example of how a community-driven effort is done.

Although not a typical ingredient in the classic-case open source project, forums are an excellent way to communicate, educate and motivate a community around a project. I have helped make the forums more aware of the wiki and pushed to coordinate the efforts of both mediums. I also try to motivate people on the forums to file bugs or bring their problems to the ubuntu-devel mailing list, when appropriate.
