@melissawm @opensourcedesign @simulo @fosdem I reject the premise of the question. There are other sources of funding. But FOSSDEM isn’t about #foss. It should really be called #OSSDEM. Then I wouldn’t have any reason to criticise because we already know “open source” is about business and Google being the main sponsor is just par for the course for open source. But when you bring “freedom” into it… well, I expect higher standards, at least.
