I wish I possess the skills to write short summaries, but this basically defines
my point of view too. I see that commercial Github is a better technical
platform for preserving source code, because it is better backed up by people
time and more reliable as a result. I also see that chances for free NPO
accounting software to be born are higher inside Google or Twitter or
Facebook who would be glad to release it into public under non-restrictive
license, and that could be my good motive to join them too. Just to get a
chance to do what I do, but not alone and with some money. Sad, but true.
