I just stumbled upon this project #21

Closed illiliti closed 11 months ago

illiliti commented 11 months ago

First of all thanks for raising awareness of projects that abuse open-source term!

I've made similar project on a more FOSS-respecting platform: https://codeberg.org/illiliti/openwashing. However I'll deprecate it in favor of yours in order to join efforts. I didn't plan to hunt for these incidents anyway(I only listed those that I knew of already), so joining efforts would make sense for me. Do you support my proposal?

Regardless, there is a case that you didn't document yet: https://codeberg.org/illiliti/openwashing#skiff. I can create a separate issue if you want.

Thanks @illiliti, Sure! Happy to join efforts, as long as you're happy with the scope/direction/methods I've set-out, although happy to take feedback on that.

I've just opened #22 to track Skiff, thanks for letting us know of that case!

Great! I've archived my repo in favor of yours.

I'll follow up, thanks!
