Will StatusNet Be Another Open-Source Star in the Enterprise? -
With a committed developer community, an open-source enterprise provider can show significant improvements in its product. Today, StatusNet released StatusNet 0.9.0 , the latest version of its software, representing eight month of development by the StatusNet developer community. The feature list scrolls down the page. It includes leading edge support for OStatus , the new distributed status update standard based on PubSubHubbub , Salmon , Webfinger , and Activity Streams . Open-source software is proving to be a winner in the enterprise.
The Medium - The Death of the Open Web - NYTimes.com
When a wall goes up, the space you have to pay to visit must, to justify the price, be nicer than the free ones. The catchphrase for software developers is “a better experience.” Behind pay walls like the ones on Honolulu Civil Beat, the new venture by the founder Pierre Omidyar, and ’s Times of London, production values surge. Cool software greets the paying lady and gentleman; they get concierge service, perks. Web stations with entrance fees are more like boutiques than bazaars. The far more significant development, however, is that many people are on their way to quitting the open Web entirely.
I doubt it....NYT will be dead long before the Open Web by Jun 2
