I suspect that's because they didn't match the extrinsic rewards to any intrinsic ones.
Although, the way Henne mentioned that, matching internal and external rewards sounds touchy, it is not. Thanks to flexibility of human mind it is important to have something to match, and mind will assign values to it. The rest of it is statistics and use of feedback to fine tune reward loops. In other words to fail, one has to grossly misunderstand intended public, reward system *and* ignore feedback. For instance, declaring openSUSE as distro for developers is missing that for any developer intrinsic reward is success of his project which is measured by user satisfaction and positive peer reviews. That is the reason that developers gravitate to distributions with more users where they can have both, more users and more peers. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
