Li Eron believes in accountability of purpose and intent on a project that is supported by members of the community. It  isn't bragging. It is about transparency, documentations that proved a successful endeavor involving others. It is a concerted effort  therefore it supercede the mentality of humbleness. Because each contributor is a part of that project .
