OpenWengo Code Camp

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the what-to-do-with-sleepless-nights dept.

An anonymous reader writes "It seems that OpenWengo launched its first Code Camp a few days ago. The contest is apparently following the same process as Google Summer of Code, but is mainly focused on VoIP software. There are 14 projects for students to work on. Among them, a couple pretty interesting ones, like creating an XUL interface editor. There is a 3500 Euro stipend at stake for students completing their project. I also find interesting that most of the available projects can be reused by any software project using a GPL-compatible license."

    Is this nothing more than a cheap excuse to groom students to work on OpenWengo's own software? C'mon now, the OSS market hasn't sunk that low...

    I'll subscribe to Slashdot when I see a month without a dupe, a typo, or an article the "editors" didn't read.

    GPL compatible only?

    Fuck that. I want my code to be free.

      Thus guaranteeing that almost all corporate sponsors and most talented developers won't touch the cod with a 10 foot pole...

      No thanks. The GPL is a taint and it is killing innovation in the industry every day. I'm in silicon valley and see it happening constantly.
