It seems "just" using open source code is unglamourous in this industry. Everyone wants to create it, which leads to too many solutions to the same problems and not enough support for any one. Organizations that simply use open source need to receive more respect.
- nkurz 13y agoOrganizations that simply use open source need to receive more respect. Could you explain? While there are other ways of contributing than just supplying code, to gain my respect organizations must contribute something back. I don't see how the world as a whole benefits when a company uses "open source" instead buying something commercial or developing their own solution. It may be a smart choice, but not one that should garner additional respect.
