独立的开源项目开发者如何获得报酬?

原文链接：‘NETFLIX FOR OPEN SOURCE’ WANTS DEVELOPERS TO GET PAID

适兕点评：

连线的文章，从来都不会让人感到失望。 开始以一个引人入胜的故事，然后提出问题，然后有人开始试图解决这个问题。具体点是什么。

Tidelift 这家公司能否完成很多人都难以完成的事情，它既不是基金会，也不是社区知名人士，即 “We couldn’t understand why something like this didn’t exist, so we created it,” says Tidelift CEO Donald Fischer, a former executive at Red Hat who founded the company with other open source veterans.

拭目以待吧，这在天朝是简直不可思议。

为什么阿里巴巴会和 MariaDB达成协议？云平台面临新的战争

适兕点评：

As the world shifts from buying software to buying services, no one sells more than Amazon Web Services (AWS), and not everyone likes it. Or, rather, not everyone likes the fact that AWS has managed to turn all sorts of free and open source software into not-so-free and proprietary services, to the tune of tens of billions of dollars. In fact, AWS is so good at turning open code into closed services that it tends to make (much) more from open source projects like MySQL than those project founders ever dreamed of making, and has never been inclined to share that revenue.

开源之道，去年写过一篇文章，关于公有云大厂决战开源！ 是的，这篇文章只有开头对了： 人们从购买软件想购买服务转变。

微软宣布 Azure Pipeline 无限期支持开源项目的 CI/CD

原文链接：Microsoft Announces Azure Pipelines with Unlimited CI/CD Minutes for Open Source

适兕点评：

目前来看，微软理解的开发者，乃大厂思维也，战略者视野！ 本来开源谁都可以分析，微软却在短短的5年，就找到了自己的节奏，混合着过去的做法，简直天衣无缝。

Commons Clause 再解释

适兕点评：

一篇让你详细理解 Redis 增加商业许可的法律效力！ 是的，搭便车的太多，但是不要过分担忧，你的策略就是如此。否则连顶点机会都没有。

Linux之父道歉，但是他真的会改变吗？

原文链接：LINUX’S CREATOR IS SORRY. BUT WILL HE CHANGE?

适兕点评：

一石激起千层浪，kernel 社区的代码公约吸引了无数人的眼光。连线也在翻旧账，可想而知Linus的影响力。

个人的观点是完全没有必要担忧，Linus早就该做出这样的决定了。只是它选择了拖延而已。

光与影以及开源：好莱坞拥抱Linux作为代码共享的尝试

原文链接：Lights, Camera, Open Source: Hollywood Turns to Linux for New Code Sharing Initiative

适兕点评：

本文只需摘抄几段即可，毋须多言！因为除了报道事实之外，都是倡导开源的走向和未来的趋势。what do you believe？

No longer confined to sectors whose products are software-focused, everyone from the automotive to the medical industries are writing their own code to meet their needs, some of which may surprise you. 是的，所谓的程序员早该失业了。专业的才是王道。

Jim Zemlin 说 ： “Open source is a diverse community”, “Companies need to be able to share what they want to share and keep what they want to keep.”

好莱坞的这个调查结果非常重要！ Their survey found that some 84% were using open source in their work, specifically in the fields of animation and visual effects.

开源和开放标准的十字路口

原文链接：At the Crossroads of Open Source and Open Standards

适兕点评：

前端浏览器相关的技术，WWW 本来就是开放标准，和TCP/IP 一样，这也是它生命力的所在，一直运行的很好啊！ 作者的意思是想让更多的人参与？

贡献开源软件背后隐藏的价值

原文链接：The Hidden Benefit of Giving Back to Open Source Software

适兕点评：

来自哈佛商学院的战略助理教授 Frank Nagle，最新调查的Paper，说实话，这是我这几年一直想做而没有完成的事情。想说服别人，哪里有那么的容易，毕竟赤裸裸的诱惑就在面前，QingCloud也罢，各种OpenStack、Linux厂商也罢，总是贡献少甚至不贡献而将开源项目当做公共物品来看待，从未想过吃亏这件事，毕竟将有限的资源投入到现金流上才是王道。这也是我一直以来失败的原因。看看人家教授怎么说吧。

shows that paying employees to contribute to such software boosts the company’s productivity from using the software by as much as 100 percent, when compared with free-riding competitors.

Nagle 不仅列举了数字世界的内容，还类比了现实世界的内容。最终还是要回到管理上：“More and more, firms are having to interact with products or people or capabilities that lie outside of their direct control, and that is something that few managers fully realize at this point,” says Nagle. “Many are starting to realize it, but I think it’ll be one of the bigger shifts that traditional management goes through as the digital revolution marches on.”

总而言之，这将是明年开源之道重点分析的论文，精读！精读！精读！
