People often ask, &ldquo;If everybody is free to change the software, what does that do for compatibility?&rdquo; Well the fact is, users like compatibility. It is not the only thing they like. Sometimes, certain users want an incompatible change because it has other benefits, and if so they can do it. But most users want compatibility. The result is most free software developers try very hard to be compatible. Guess what would happen if I made an incompatible difference in my program and the users did not like it.
