bus factor -- reversed?
[...] believe in open source projects that maintain a small "bus factor." That would be the number of contributors who could be hit by a bus before a project collapses. [...]
so they want the project to collapse if just one contributor is hit by a bus, in contrast to only collapsing if most contributors take the bus? somehow the definition got reversed i think. the bus factor should be defined as 1/redundancy or 1/(number of brains every piece of knowledge is contained in) (this would be a wetware RAID). or they should aim for a big bus factor.
