> I imagine this probably also includes astroturfing to apply pressure on companies who don't go "all the way" and basically subsidise their competitors for free. I think you are exactly correct. It's deeply disturbing that the OSI out of one side of their mouth says "indie developers, you should forgo any right to your own software or not truly open-source" and out of the other side of their mouth collects donations from giant internet monopolies that freeload... MIT/BSD/Public Domain licenses long pre-date the OSI. The FSF is it's own thing... What's even the point of the OSI beyond trying to pressure developers to drop their creations into the public domain to be stolen? |
