Re: Re: Proposal for rabbit-semi from EmbeddedRelated.com

I agree with Matthew, and I see his
point of view clearly.

I would not want a business to benefit directly from comments our
group members make.

I quote "But when I succeed, it also benefits the Embedded Systems
community: I invest a good chunk of the advertising revenues to
improve the site, attract more bloggers and pay them better, offer
rewards for code snippets, etc.".

This shows it IS all about pushing revenue to their site, and not
about information.

I quote "So at the end of the day, supporting the request to make
the archives private is supporting a website devoted to helping
embedded systems experts by offering good and useful content".

So I gather from this statement that the information our members
offer is NOT GOOD OR USEFUL, unless it is accessed or offered
through this other site?

I have been using http://www.embedded.com/
for years and do not see a use for another embedded
source.

I have been developing with Rabbit, Microchip, ARM, TI, Motorola,
Zilog, Intel, and other china MPU/CPU's, for commercial, DOD, and
consumer products for over 35 years.

I see no group benefit of making the Rabbit site private.

Privatization is an exclusionary tactic.
