"This site is one of the ways in which Red Hat gives something back to the open source community. Our desire is to create a connection point for conversations about the broader impact that open source can have—and is having—even beyond the software world."

From Jim Whitehurst in Welcome to the conversation on opensource.com.

Good news, although I’d have liked it better without Red Hat being so visible in this initiative. I mean, there are other actors in the open source market, some of them competitors of Red Hat, and it would be a good idea they play an active role in the conversation too. Sometimes it’s important that the host it’s neutral, you know.

I’m sure opensource.com it’s a good idea, and I wish them a great success.
