Great example, but that was a long time ago. The argument being made here is that there isn't enough innovation in the free software space in recent years.

- bryanlarsen 15y agoWhat about the massive strides that Chrome/Mozilla/WebKit are making? What about the innovations in programming languages such as Clojure and Arc and Erlang? What about the innovations in frameworks such as node.js and sproutcore? I could go on all day. IMO, it's a lot easier to find innovation in the open source world than it is in the commercial world which seems to be more about copy & polish than it does about innovation. If you were arguing that open source lacked polish, I would agree with you. But innovation? Hardly.
