@fontana, I ultimately think #FLOSS fame should be proportional to amount of code you got into upstream. That makes me sadly not very famous

@quaid, #Eucalyptus doesn't have a #FLOSS business model. It has a proprietary business model that uses FLOSS to advance its aims. #Mikos

Corporations are now good at dividing & conquering #FLOSS world: pro-permissive, anti- !GPL. Policy same as 2001; their tactics are better.

@fontana, thanks for linking to that article. Interesting: #FLOSS isn't alone in additional IRS scrutiny. I posted link on floss-foundations

@fontana, I agree call was good. You convinced me it's not your intention to #troll #FLOSS NPOs,but clearly I must ignore some of your dents

@webmink, Exactly! That's why I say you've overstated. The personal want is only a problem when it conflicts w/ what #FLOSS project needs.

Bradley M. Kuhn webmink

@webmink, you've taken that to an absurd conclusion. Lots of people want things that are basically irrelevant to the #FLOSS project.

Bradley M. Kuhn webmink

@webmink, I think you *may* have meant: "If you want something that directly conflicts w/ what your #FLOSS project needs, you've a problem".

Bradley M. Kuhn webmink

@webmink, by that argument, my #FLOSS projects don't *need* a cup of #coffee, but I *want* one. You're saying I therefore have a problem?

Bradley M. Kuhn webmink

@webmink, that's certainly true for me as well, but that's a *very* strict rule to impose on all #FLOSS developers, don't you think?

Bradley M. Kuhn

Any time you don't have a clear distinction in your mind btw what you personally want & what your #FLOSS project needs, you've got a problem
