An attitude like that and there's any wonder it didn't work out? Sheesh.
This is the thing about OSS: The business willing to give back (and
there are many such businesses) are the ones that reap benefits. The
companies that wilfully cling to zero-sum bullshit are on their own, by
their own choice, and open themselves to allowing their competitors to
take the advantage for themselves. That is the way of the world, that is
the way of reality.
D can't be held responsible for self-defeating zero-sum, "us vs them"
mentalities. Sheesh.
