There was a story about david and goliath in web 2.0 term. Aint no talking about dirty game,or fraud in web usability.Battle between O’Reilly and Webguild. Is not about right or wrong. Moral of the story.When Company build community in open source, they should not cut off support.They should be full support.Cause open source is not free,but without support we’re nothing. So Community is power.
What if Tim O’Reilly do tricky business ??, suing non-profits and do someone else his dirty work.Web 2.0, is the free flow of information, however he shut off it. Suddenly he contact Google to cut off support for a holding web 2.0 conferences that are priced at a fraction of his conference.
