This is an interesting aspect, and some good projects do come from Europe
But open source projects still need a roadmap, focus and maintenance, regardless of how they are funded.
- phoronixrly 5y agoWhether a project needs those things is up to its author(s) to decide. If you don't agree with them you're welcome to fork.
- raverbashing 5y agoIf you want a real project then you need those If you just want to share code, that's fine as well, but that's not an OSS project (sure, it can be an open source "project" - but not a project that grows)
- sdoering 5y agoWhat is 'a real project'? What is the (or at least your) definition of that term? Why is sharing code (as long as an OSS license is attached) not open source? Under what circumstances am I allowed to call things I do open source, under what circumstances not?
- jatone 5y agomaintenance for a mature project is pretty low if you just don't deal with the masses constantly bombarding you with feature requests/unrelated fixes. outside of a few specific areas; like compilers but that's mainly because hardware is constantly evolving.
