jack_http://www.vuntz.net/journal/post/2011/02/28/Canonical,-you-re-breaking-my-heart04:31
jack_mark shuttleworth put an update on his blog04:32
jack_they gave banshee a choice whether to disable the plugin or give 75% of profits to Canonincal, they choose to disable, so they're leaving it enabled and taking 75%04:32
holsteintoo bad for the gnome project04:33
holsteini mean, its hard not to see it as a kick in the pants04:34
holsteinas the transition to unity happens04:34
holsteinAND, *so* many people use the amazon store04:35
holsteini mean, i guess they dont have to give any of the bread to banshee/gnome04:36
holsteinso whatever04:36
holsteinjack_: what do you think?04:36
jack_seems like they're being strongarmed into doing what canonical wants. that sucks and goes against the open source way in my opinon.04:37
jack_if you're going to go against the developers of the applications, you might as well just fork the project04:37
holsteinyeah, fork it, and bring it in under whatever terms you want04:38
