I would very much like to see those companies succeed. But when a company forces me to choose between their survival and the survival of Open Source as an institution, my choice is made.
- kemitchell 8y agoHyperbole for hyperbole: When an institution can't respond to urgent needs, or privileges one side of a balance over the other until it tips, there is nothing you can do for it. I've read messages on OSI's mailing list that if you have to ask how your're going to make money making open source, you're the wrong person to make open source, and ought to make proprietary software, instead.
