- zeeg 3y agoNoted! We’ve messed this up in the past and I have a vague recollection of this same confusion. Hasn’t helped that others (possibly also partly due to us) have made the same mistake. We’ll work to correct this usage.
- whit537 3y agoFYI we have a follow-up at https://blog.sentry.io/lets-talk-about-open-source/ https://blog.sentry.io/lets-talk-about-open-source/. > Yesterday we announced that Codecov is now “Open Source”, and we messed up in two ways: > - We wrongly used the term Open Source; while unintentional, we should have known better > - We let our emotions get the best of trying to explain our position, rather than stepping back and addressing the problem > I want to talk about both of these, how we made the mistake, why it’s important to us, and what we plan to do about this to improve the conversation in the future.
