Really? Where? Why wouldn't they be able to get involved?

I think MOS being closed source is just a bad excuse from people who
don't want to be involved and want to blame something else than their
laziness/lack of time/lack of talent/whatever.

If someone really wants to improve MOS there's certainly enough to do
without having access to any particular sourcecode.


winterhunter: Your reasoning is flawed. Some things that are
non-technical are bullsh*t. Not all things. However, I would place
most of the "business" or "entrepreneur" material in the bullsh*t
category. Lots of it even directly appeals to flimsy new-age concepts,
but even what doesn't usually lacks even the aim to be falsifiable.
I don't deny that there are some more or less useful tools to improve
brainstorming sessions (though I would rank SWOT analyses as less
useful) but what caused my remark was your statement that such
methods would let someone "factually SEE" whether there is a business
case. Sorry, but there are simply no magical methods to turn guesses
into facts like this.
