OpenBD Steering Committee
Tuesday 8 April 2008 - Filed under Code + Linux + Reviews
Alan has a list of the OpenBD (Open BlueDragon) Steering Committee on his blog:
Andy Allan, Peter Amiri, Mike Brunt, Sean Corfield, Mark Drew, Adam Haskell, Jordan Michaels, Alan Williamson, Matt Woodward and Andy Wu
LOTS of good names on there and some really nice quotes but obviously I’m going to have to step up and volunteer for the committee myself.
“formalised language”… “masterful clustering-replication mechanism”…
Huh?
Not one of them mentioned the dreaded ‘f-word‘…. Can’t anyone say it??! Me of shallow pockets (have you priced kid sneakers lately?) will…
OpenBD is Free!! (it even rhymes – marketing will love that)
OK. Now I feel better.
On a serious note – I am happy to see such prominent names on the committee and I’m really looking forward to seeing where all this goes. Exciting times!

Just to level set, the quotes were all taken from introductory posts talking about where we would like to take the CFM Language. So non of us could answer “I would like to make it free,” Vince et al. already did that for us haha!
