FLOSS Weekly 614: Ethics and Open Source

Published: Jan. 27, 2021, 8:59 p.m.

Openbase, Elastic vs AWS.

Matt Asay believes we need a new way to think about open source. This comes on the heels of the Elastic vs AWS controversy. Shawn Powers and new co-host Katherine Druckman join Doc Searls in a lively discussion of ethics and open source on FLOSS Weekly. The panel takes a look at three efforts currently making news: the Ethical Source Movement; Matt Asay's Infoworld post titled A New Way To Think About Open Source; and Openbase, which Venturebeat says "wants to be the Yelp for open source software packages."

Hosts: Doc Searls, Shawn Powers, and Katherine Druckman
