Give them the app for the $500 they promised you. On a DVD/CD. Hosting it is another cost, which you would be glad to do/arrange for them, once you get that cost paid to you.

That's pretty awesome, really. I wonder if they sizzled away the first extra-terrestrial life form(s) confirming it was water? =) (No, I don't believe this to be possible, but it would make an interesting historical footnote.)

This is a no more a blind "taste test" than if Pepsi hadn't allowed their pawns to actually sip the cola, but just described to them how good it was. Ridiculous in the extreme.

Seriously, hasn't the "...is evil" meme run its course, 10x over?

I have an odd sense of Schadenfreude here, but I can't quite figure out why.

Blast! You stole my thunder - I was going to use the same argument here. But about emacs instead, you heathen. =)

Wow, irrational arrogance in a well known developer. How unusual! </snark> Does anyone who's followed this case even slightly find this the least bit surprising?

Agree with Mystalic. I'm probably more conservative than liberal, but I want people to HAVE choices and be able to think critically, even if they make different choices than I do. This is saddening news.

It's probably just me, but does anyone else see this as a bit of overhype? I haven't heard too much chatter about reddit's /codebase/. I guess it's fine that it's going Open Source, but it's not something I have heard anyone really clamor
