大意是：
如果你每天sync，你会注意到天天都有更新。一个又一个的软件源源不断的得到测试，更新，打补丁和改进。所有这一切不花你一分钱。
这就是为什么我希望你也投入一点什么。虽然很小，但是……
向一位开发者表达你的感激。在IRC上说句谢谢，给他们发个email告诉他们他们升级的软件包解决了曾经困扰你的一些bug。下次见到他们的时候，请他们喝杯酒，或者仅仅是拥抱他们。毕竟我们都是普普通通的人，在一个由志愿者撑起的社区里，这样的反馈能极大的激发开发者的开发热情。而充满了激情的开发者们将会创造出更加多的好东西，那样你就能享受到更好的软件环境。
这只会占用你一分钟的时间。他们已经投入了他们自己数不清的时间。这是个划算的买卖……：）

Hug a Developer!
If you do your daily emerge --sync in the morning, as I used to do (now it is "cvs up"  ), you may notice a package or a dozen updated. There's a constant stream of packages being tested, updated, patched, improved. And best of all it doesn't cost you anything!
That's why I want you to invest something. It's quite small ... but ...
Show a developer of your choice your appreciation. Say thanks to them on IRC, send them a small mail explaining how their bumping of a package fixed three annoying bugs for you. Offer them a beer next time you meet them or just hug them when you get a chance. After all we're humans, and in a community of volunteers that kind of feedback can improve motivation a lot. And more motivated devs will make more good things so that you can enjoy an even better software environment.
It costs a minute of your time. They invest hours of theirs. It's a small price to pay ...
