Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to How long can the OpenACS community get away with being an island?

Dave,

I understand you point,but... I don;t see my comments as conflicting with the 'goal of the community'

As far as I was aware the 'goal' was to effectively serve all its members.. that includes commercial organisations.

If you don't want OpenACS to become a leading light in this area, then may I ask exactly what you do envision?

Commercial organisations need to feel confident about the product and the goals... hence the slight separation of tech from commerce.. whether you like statements like that or not, it happens t be part and parcel of what it takes to promote products...
