Does anyone actually believe that Canonical is going to base a decision on what their community think, rather than on what Mark thinks?

I think Mark has already floated this idea, so I'd say it is a done deal.

If I´m not mistaken, the guy who proposed it, is the VP of engineering ... So, i guess it does have some relevance

Unless that Mark everyone always speaks about does not agree...

BTW, I am still wondering why Canonical is not a not-for-profit company. After all, that Mark already knows how to get too rich too fast so now he should be after work for glory no? (I admit I am jalous of not having gone through the first step - but the second is the one worth it. ;-)
