I disagree that it was a misquote. You've claimed that I took it out
of context, but I don't see that the context makes a difference.


If I remember, the quote as you used it made it look like I was 
saying all voluntary work without remuneration was a waste. In fact, 
I was saying that voluntary work *duplicating* *existing* 
*functionality* without remuneration a waste which is clear if you 
read that quote in context. The former makes me look like a dickhead 
whereas the latter is my actual opinion.


I found the context:
