Hi,
There has been a lot of discussion surrounding SailfishOS, the open
source parts of it (incl. middleware within Mer and Nemo Mobile project)
and collaboration methods/practices -- and that we can do better than
how things are today.
Hi,
Your mail is direct reaction to this widely retweeted tweet today:
https://twitter.com/fk_lx/status/452037379038408704
and previous discussion that was conducted on Twitter. It's worth to
notice problem was published long time ago at Together, before it became
hot:
https://together.jolla.com/question/680/co-creation-leading-to-co-development/#post-id-1214
https://together.jolla.com/question/680/co-creation-leading-to-co-development/#post-id-6833
Since that time, no significant actions have been taken to fix that, but
that can be understood and justified considering other important things
for Jolla like preparing to MWC and Sailfish going out of beta.
We would really like to have constructive talk with the decisive people
around Sailfish, that have real influence and can change how open source
collaboration looks in practice (whoever those people are). We also want
for Jolla engineers who work on open source parts take part in that
discussion, as it's a topic that is directly connected with their work.
I only have doubts that if it will be normal, uncontrolled IRC
discussion, that it might result in chaos (like many of those that were
made on this topic on IRC before). I wanted to give my own proposal how
such discussion should look like from organizational point of view, so
there would be a chance for it's results to be satisfying for both sides
(Jolla & OSS community). I haven't had time to made it yet, because I
had quite busy day, but I hope the fact that Carsten already took first
step and proposed a meeting does still give me a chance for doing that.
I think it's really important for the discussion to have proper and calm
form and I think it's possible considering goodwill on both sides.
Regards,
Filip
PS. Personally I really count that Marc Dillon (Head of Software
Development in Jolla) will take part in it.
