it is important to point out that wasmer is an organization that is not in good standing with the wasm/wasi community

until that is resolved, their products should probably not be viewed in good faith




How involved are you in the WASM/WASI community?

In your view, what would it take to get the not-in-good-standing issue resolved?

What do you get out of shitposting Wasmer when they announce an initiative they are excited about? (I'm mostly trying to understand your psychology, not whether or if you have some kind of competing financial interest)


> In your view, what would it take to get the not-in-good-standing issue resolved?

probably the most effective way would be for the organization to release a statement abdicating their previous controversial positions, and for the CEO to resign


you don't get to classify my comments as "shitposting"

i'm summarizing well-understood opinions of the ecosystem


Can you explain more?



Probably that plus other things

Also "we didn't sign the agreement but the lawyers pushed the application forward anyways" sounds very...un-lawyer-y. Kinda sus.



Yeah, I read all that. I still don't understand why/how the lawyers went ahead with the trademark process before the engagement letter was signed.

Like, I want to believe you, it just seems weird of lawyers to do the thing without the i's dotted and t's crossed. I can see software devs totally barging ahead, but lawyers, less so.


that's the beginning of it, basically, yes
