I'm fine with open-sourcing my own stuff and I have been. The argument is relevant because if the kids access 3rd-party flash games on the web, they won't have access to the sourcecode. The VM brings the exact same situation as Apple allowing "unapproved" apps running on the iPhone. If we're talking about OLPC's official policy for apps that will be distributed in official main builds, there are no arguments about open source. Local deployments are free to do with their machines as they want. -- carlos nazareno http://twitter.com/object404 http://www.object404.com -- interactive media specialist zen graffiti studios http://www.zengraffiti.com -- "if you don't like the way the world is running, then change it instead of just complaining." _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
