exactly, Cannonical is really doing too many things with limited resource at the same time.
- geofft 11y agoThe obvious follow-up question is, given their limited resources, why were they spending some of it on closed-source code based on other people's commercial code?
- chipaca 11y agoWhat're you talking about, there?
- geofft 11y agoThe answer quoted above said they needed to spend time to "untangle it of some commercial code that was used at some point." That just strikes me as a bizarre problem for Canonical to have even had.
- slgeorge 11y agoOnly if your focus is open source. UbuntuOne was conceived of as a service, so to make the project go faster and solve problems commercial products were used. As you'd expect you then have to disentangle that code to release you code as open source - happens all the time in big proprietary code bases that are being open sourced.
