I never said large. Small proprietary companies also can't use GPL. I guess, fuck them, too? Fuck anyone who wants to actually make money writing software for a living? How very 1998 of you.
Doh, I did say large. Well, crap. How about "thousands of small proprietary companies..." ?
- gillianseed 14y agoStill doesn't mean I owe them anything, if I want to give away code for proprietary companies to use then that's genererous and perfectly fine. Likewise there's not something wrong with with only writing open source for open source, where you will be priviledged to have any enhancements made to your code available to you. And if 'you actually want to make money writing software' then you really can't demand that there should be code lying around for you to use and sell. Complaints about people not wanting to write code that proprietary companies can use for free and sell simply appals me. As if the 'companies' should have some god-given right to use open source and make money?
