Open Source Not Welcome At Palm App Catalog

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the well-thats-not-very-friendly-of-you dept.

In this case, Palm has resisted including a free application because the source code is attainable elsewhere."

    Ah. The Palm appologist fanboys are already out in force. Jump all over Apple sure, but if its Palm then "Noooes, Palm is just working out kinks", despite strong evidence that internally the whole Pre developer program is riddled (and I mean riddled) with schitzoid internal behaviour from executives and others within Palm. And I haven't seen any sign that its improving.
