Minor nit: In economic terms, Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice are not complementary.
- Dennis In computing, an example of complements are hardware and software. Software vendors want the hardware to be free (more for us!) and hardware vendors want the software to be free (more for us!). Throw in telecommunication carriers, smartphones, and software and it gets really exciting. There is some other term needed for independent producers that deliver comparables while cooperating in areas of mutual interest. Although monopolistic competition arises (mines better than yours), it is moderated in the case of open-source efforts. (Perhaps this is because there cannot be abuse of, let alone achievement of, monopoly power where feature differentiation is in the open-source code base.) -----Original Message----- From: Jim Jagielski [mailto:j...@apache.org] Sent: Tuesday, April 03, 2012 13:32 To: general@incubator.apache.org Cc: Simon Phipps Subject: Re: CloudStack Incubation proposal On Apr 3, 2012, at 3:27 PM, Andreas Kuckartz wrote: > On 03.04.2012 20:10, Jim Jagielski wrote: > >> Oh come on... 1st of all, it's a joke. > > One I do not find funny at all.

I would like collaboration between these projects to increase not decrease. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
