There is an article on slashdot [1] "Has the Apache Software Foundation Lost Its Way?" but most comments are about AOO/LO. http://apache.slashdot.org/story/13/08/26/210200/has-the-apache-software-foundation-lost-its-way
...and the comments are actually missing the point since the premise of the article is that open source projects do not need a foundation to prosper. The article is also contradictory and even contains factual errors, so it's probably not worth commenting at length. Keith Curtis wrote:

That is not very accurate too. The most interesting point is this one:
our operations people use OpenOffice ... Because of a horrible bug in Apache OpenOffice, backspacing take an eternity, which is truly painful to watch.
What bug is he talking about? "Eternity" surprisingly returns a match in Bugzilla, but nothing related to backspace... There is https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=107775 from 2010 but it is about a specific document. Did anyone ever experience this "backspacing take an eternity" bug?
