The Right to Be Rude

• kstenerud 7y ago
  What does the OSI actually do nowadays? They were important in the past for advocacy and awareness, but open source is now a household word, so what is the actual purpose of OSI, and is it even useful? Does being on their shitlist prevent you from contributing to open source projects? No. Would open source projects die without their support? I doubt it. So is it any wonder that in their loss of mission they've become ossified and bureaucratic, doing the modern day equivalent of arguing over how many angels can dance on the end of a pin?

    i do understand this is customary here, but could you please do some minimal research before you get to the favourite activity of defending the fucking shitstain?

      Are you talking about OSI or the author? Because I'm defending neither.
