Canonical will learn that soon enough anyways, with everything surrounding Mir. And I'm glad. Their current way of doing things reminds me a lot of how GitHub works with open source, with the major difference that where GitHub builds completely new systems when they're needed/the alternatives aren't up to par, Canonical builds them all over the place, when many times it would be better if they contributed to the existing projects (Wayland, systemd) and expect the same community support that GitHub gets surrounding their open source code (Resque, Chronic, Jekyll, etc).
It's kind of disheartening that Canonical keeps trying to "disrupt" existing open source projects by muscling their way behind their own projects, developed in secret, with little to no community input. /rant
