→Komodo: Making Proprietary Products Open Source
A year past the initial release of Komodo Edit, Shane shared thoughtful insight and knowledge on the topic of making proprietary products open source; focusing on the struggles, roadblocks and great successes of ActiveState.
In essence, when Shane and other lead developers raised the idea to tinker with manifesting an open source product based upon a proprietary product, a set of guidelines were established, that fundamentally detail the purest sense of ''the'' open source idea.
They are as follows:
*Gain contribution
*Explore new business models
*Increase user base
*Reposition product
*Exposure to new markets
*Increase commercial sales
