Growing open source ecosystems: the install story
,----[ Quote ]
| While I believe that an open source project
| like Mylyn should welcome all integrations,
| an indefinitely increasing support burden
| is not scalable and can reduce the time
| available for innovation. We need to avoid
| the Easter Island effect where everyone
| builds themselves self-serving heads
| without prioritizing the long-term health
| of the ecosystem within which they operate
| (see Easter Island/Collapse of the
| Ecosystem).

Software pricing: to hide or not to hide? That is the question â Or have the Bazaar's Principles become obsolete?
,----[ Quote ]
| Software vendors donât like so much
| publishing their prices on the web site.
| They will explain they have a very complex
| price list, or can be very creative
| justifying why they canât. But to make a
| long story short: they just donât want to.
| I donât see the value for the client to
| hide the price. And thatâs exactly why they
| donât like to show it.

Black Duck Software
,----[ Quote ]
| One reason I am curious about this (outside
| of the fact that I really dislike the
| fauxpen source business model that Zenoss
| uses and like to point out flaws whenever I
| can) is that if you look at the Zenoss
| Subscriber Agreement (pdf), there is a very
| odd clause required of all users who buy
| the enterprise version that forbids
| forking.
