All of those who have spent their free time contributing to Linux distributions are why 'apt install' is easy. You can contribute too.

As the co-founder of Apache Java and a 20+ year member of the ASF, creator and contributor to hundreds of projects over the years, I think I've contributed enough of my time to OSS. I'm more than happy to let the new kids jump in. Thanks for the 'advice'.

What percentage of ASF projects use 'apt install' at all? Did the Apache folks themselves make the packages? Should we complain about ASF for not making an 'apt install' for each of their projects?
Of a random sampling of install instructions for different ASF projects, the instructions generally are "1. Install java" then "2. Download this binary" and "3. Run the binary with java". Not quite 'apt install', is it?
