Keith keith at rhizomatica.orgHi Vadim. I feel somewhat reluctant to be the first to respond and so negatively, but I for one have serious problems with any further collaboration with google (et al.) I'm even somewhat unhappy that many people on this mailing list force me to have my writing archived forever and completely outside of my control by using gmail email address. but.. hey.. what can one do? It's "free" right? And we are so poor opensource devs, we can't afford to run a mail server, or buy an account on non surveillance based service... The words "open source" and "google" in the same sentence should not "compile" but unfortunately, given the sad state of FOSS, they do. I don't have a good analysis of what google gets out of the summer of code, nor do I have the time or inclination to go reasearch it right now, but knowing their general modus operandi I'm pretty sure they get more out of it that anybody else, as is the case in fact, lamentably with most FOSS. I know that my contribution is not huge to Osmocom, but I can say is response to your proposal, I'd like to see osmocom be a little more on the ball, and work towards sustainable FOSS, and I firmly believe that means saying NO to corporate surveillance. Otherwise, what's the point? As some say in Kreuzberg, Google is kein guter Nachbar! and they are not your friends either. In the long terms, nothing good will come from collaboration with them. It's time to take a stand on ethical investment in FOSS. "just my 2c" :-P k/
