| chriadam | leszek: I can't talk in the meeting channel for some reason, so replying here: thank you for your honesty and openness. it's an opinion we need to hear, and I know that your frustration with the lack of progress on the opensourcing front is being heard internally. | 08:24 |
| r0kk3rz | thanks chriadam :) | 08:25 |
| leszek | chriadam: good to hear. Its not my uniq impressions. Visiting akademy for example I met many dissappointed Jolla 1 and Jolla C owners with the same opinion | 08:26 |
| chriadam | speaking personally: I share that frustration. I personally see this NDA process as a possible stepping stone (e.g. show board/investors the value and scope of community contribution) | 08:26 |
| chriadam | but let us see what happens. | 08:27 |
| r0kk3rz | the idea that nobody in jolla cares about open sourcing is false btw, plenty of people care but they also arent calling the shots | 08:27 |
| sledges | chriadam: try to reconnect to your IRC (and then re-identify with NickServ), worked for me | 08:28 |
| *** m0hm0h_ is now known as m0hm0h | 08:30 | |
| chriadam | I don't think I ever bothered to register my nick with nickserv | 08:30 |
| r0kk3rz | that'd be way then | 08:32 |
| r0kk3rz | *why | 08:32 |
| sledges | then you should try ;) Freenode enforced +R on nicks since yesterday | 08:33 |
| leszek | r0kk3rz: I know about people caring in Jolla. The problem is the impression on the outside. | 08:33 |
| r0kk3rz | tbh i dont think it will ever happen, and im ok with that | 08:35 |
| r0kk3rz | if you arent, there are plenty of fully open source projects to work with | 08:35 |
| sledges | or like chriadam said, we'll walk up to the board and show them how valuable and time saving such (NDA) contributions are, that we should open up | 08:36 |
| r0kk3rz | sledges: i dont expect too many people will want to work for free on closed code | 08:36 |
| r0kk3rz | you want me to work on closed stuff, you can pay me :) | 08:36 |
| sledges | that's why we don't expect more than 1-2 developers per our proposed tasks :) | 08:36 |
| sledges | no need to interview/compete between :D | 08:37 |
| r0kk3rz | so its like an unpaid internship ;) | 08:38 |
| sledges | indeedski:) | 08:39 |
| chriadam | I personally do see this as a way to let people who want to contribute to closed side (in order to fix specific issues they care about), where previously no such way existed. I personally hope that this will result in progress on the open-source front, but that remains to be seen. | 08:40 |
| chriadam | of course I expect the pool of people who are willing to do so to be quite small, that's definitely understandable. | 08:41 |
