Trust is key in open source

,----[ Quote ]
| Trust is a two-way street. Vendors have to trust that their
| community is giving them an honest shot at profit. The community
| must trust that the vendor is going to stay true to the open
| source path.
|
| When trust disappears, both sides lose.

| Of course, I no longer work there now, I work for a vendor.
| Namely, Canonical, a company that does seek to make money.
| This begs an interesting question about where trust fits
| in, particularly as I work with our community. Where is
| the line drawn between the company and the community?
| Can my trust be bought and sold as part of my work with
| Canonical?
