		tillk on July 7, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: "Just open-source it" is not realistic Thanks! I am surprised by this trend — put a project on kickstarter and promise to open source it. Build it on tech that's been open sourced for free. Trying to stay positive here. But haven't they heard of the millions of people who contribute to (quality) open source software every day?

... and dont forget the few thousand FOSS projects already freely available on Gitorious, Github, Bitbucket, Google-Code, Launchpad, Sourceforge and ... so many more !
