This article is ridiculous crap. At the end of the day, Google gives you their freakin' code, damn it. This means that if you're not happy with the way Google is running things, you can go ahead and fork your Chrome OS or Android. And if you do manage to build something significantly better than what Google can offer and people use your stuff over theirs, there's nothing Google can do about it.
Jeez.
- mscarborough 17y agoDiscussion / constructive criticism of open source code management or business decisions that affect developers shouldn't just be dismissed with a "fine then if you're so smart just fork the code, jeez".
- rpdillon 17y agoSure, but starting off the discussion by implying that Google is somehow less open than Apple or Microsoft is really just flamebait. If the Register were really interested in inciting change, they could use a headline like "Google May Be Open, But Keeps Community In The Dark".
- ErrantX 17y agoIm not disagreeing but I think your rebuttal fails to note the major point of the article (which I found actually fairly accurate).
