I'm just kinda curious about some comments on Twitter and here. Ok, the guy made an open source library, with no strings attached, a big company used it for god knows what and acknowledged him. Why would the company give him anything more than acknowledgement? As far as we know they didn't demand any updates or support from him, why are they expected to give him freebies, contribute to the code or anything else?
