The open-sourcing of the Launchpad platform and individual components would be a great help to the entire community, for sure. It would enable people like ourselves to help with implementing features into Launchpad, as well as have other installations of the software available should other places want to provide hosting and build management services like what Canonical is currently doing for the community. The question in my mind is why has Launchpad been---and why is it---currently a closed-source, proprietary project of Canonical's? Is there any reason that the work being done on it is being done behind closed doors? If so, what is that reason? Could not the community be more helpful to the Launchpad project if the source for it and its various subsystems were available in a publicly reachable bzr branch? --- Mike -- Michael B.
