The thing that irks me…………all these open source, free, entities…a whole bunch of people got together, this includes Matt Mullenweg and then they go on how evil companies are for trying to make a profit on things that shouldn’t be.

What is wrong with wanting to make a profit?

Guess what? Domains cost money, Hosting costs money. Part of GPL says you can do this (for WordPress).

On the give up Github page…….guess what? things cost money. That coffee I drank this morning while typing a post on my site…costs money. The electricity for the coffee maker to operate, the water, the grinder to grind the coffee beans, making the coffee. It all costs money.

Oh my god everything must be open source….otherwise you are evil.

Everyone must give time back to the project.

I wonder how SFC pays for their domain and hosting. Donations are not a stable way to live.

Who are these people who think they should fight for things? Who put them in charge?

Guess what? I created a plugin for a client, I am not releasing it, it belongs to the client and the client will not release it. I am such an evil person.

Who is SFC to tell ME (or anyone else) how to use software?

All these organizations, a bunch of people get together and decide things? I can’t remember I, as a member of the community, being asked if I want THEM to represent me.
