[maemo-developers] Corporate ownership of open source projects [LWN]

[From: Andrew Flegg]

Hi,

On the back of my post, "maemo.org: what next?"[1], it was interesting
to read in yesterday's LWN that the community around OpenSolaris feels
very much shut out of internal Sun development processes:

Reading this, it was very striking the number of similarities with
Nokia's situation with maemo and the maemo community. The above is a
free link, but I strongly recommend you subscribe to LWN[2] if you
haven't already.

Cheers,

Andrew
