There's no point in stopping development but it would be good if someone from the MMA could figure out what their opinion is on Open Source. It seems like a huge division at the moment between what they are wanting to do and what is actually happening around here.

Maybe we have to resign ourselves to yet another completely Open source solution that has no backing from the major businesses in our field. Ok, we keep slogging on and they keep (almost) ignoring us.

Makes me feel even more uninterested in what they have to offer open source.

Should I feel guilt for not being interested in the closed source providers if they are not interested in working with us?

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No! We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything I've ever done.
