Are there commercial FOSS projects that don't have CLAs?
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoI responded to > any effort to bring in some OSS project as a dependency will be met with "Sure, it's open source now, but what about when...". If you'd like to constrain that to commercial OSS projects it would be more compelling.
- jacquesm 3y agoThe alternative to a commercial OSS project is a commercial project without the OSS component. If the quality is perceived to be similar and the OSS license is no longer a factor then it might as well be closed source.
