There are people every day to give you a sugar, you're happy, and suddenly one day he does not give up, you got angry.
In fact, this is a very easy to understand the truth, as well as in the open-source world.
Recent debate about the open source community do not open very fierce, I used the ABC representatives in the role of which are:
A: Open source software provider
B: eat melon masses
C: open-source software users
Apply to the above story has become: A day to open source C, C very pleased, suddenly one day I do not give the A, C is very angry, then B is caused by the support or supports C A big controversy.
Then A is not given what are the reasons?
- Tired, I do not want to play
- To support themselves, do not want to continue to be dedicated, you need to generate income
- Open source means that I attract the eye, to the time of the harvest
- Welcome to add
Article 1 well to do, A no longer continue to maintain this project only, but with open source code also, but after a long time will find that C - Hey, it seems a long time not updated. But not a foul-mouthed, and finally let the matter rest, accept the reality.
Article 3 is easy to cause controversy, but there are a lot of such cases, including even the CEO of MongoDB open source also voiced their true intentions, please read this article .
In Article 2 of the country is relatively common, we know that the living environment of domestic programmers are relatively hard to force, really have the energy to put into open source contributions, or have ultra-high enthusiasm, either want to be able to benefit. But when we really paid time off, paid time friends with the family, a handful of earnings, this depressed mood presumably everyone can feel it.
A selected so straightforward manner - closed source, full commercialization.
C this time the attitude, if it really should not curse, you have to eat sugar, but can not get more of it. Grateful, expect A good life of peace, is a good attitude.
As the masses eat melon B, a number of good suggestions if you have the ability to A, so that A can continue to create more sugar "power" That is the best, if not encouraged enough.
This is what I want to express personal opinions, represent my personal only. A bit messy, can not cover everything, then you can hit me.
