@makomk the only reason we'd delete a comment is if you cursed, made personal attacks, etc.

we covered makerbot going closed-source on adafruit, including the class action lawsuit. https://blog.adafruit.com/?main_page=blog&s=makerbot additionally, we covered the close-sourcing of the arduino.org products (federico's arduino) - https://blog.adafruit.com/?s=%23freearduino

and just to be super-duper clear, my opinion is that it was a mistake for makerbot to go closed source the way they did.
