How do we make open source work for everyone? While at NDC in Oslo, Carl and Richard talked to David Whitney about his experiences working on open-source projects, and the challenges of making them sustainable. David talks about how many projects start with an individual making something for themselves, which then evolves into many people utilizing the project, but not contributing to it. And when companies depend on that software, the pressure on the creators gets serious - but without compensation. How do we make open source better? And how do the tech giants make the situation better or worse?

Great show. Maybe we can put it in layman term analogy: a landscaper needs a weed eater to care for lawns, there isn't a store where they can walk into and take one off the shelf free of charge. So why does it rub people the wrong way when they are expected to pay for software that helps them profit? Talking to you big tech mega corp.
