Hi all,

Are Indian FOSS communities closed-source ?

#Cabal, #Closed-source, #Factionalism, #FOSS communities, #Microtrends, 
#India

It also tells of probable numbers that we need to target in order to be 
successful.

While I have gone to share some of the issues we face on the local 
level, the same is also sensed at the Indian level as well and probably 
a bit more pronounced but due to various reasons people have just chosen 
to be ok with the state of how things are.

Apart from this, there are two articles, one a slightly dated one and 
the other a bit more recent which also captures a bit about more startup 
ecosystem in India as well as 'trust' a loaded word.

As always, feedback is welcome :)
