> those working for the company get considerably more say and control than outside contributors
As someone who knows little about open source politics, I'm genuinely curious about how people expect this should work. What are the large open source projects that have the gold standard for this that I can learn about?
My initial reaction is that if a company contributes considerably more to a project, shouldn't they have considerable more say? For example if they have 20 full time engineers working on it and have contributed 95% of the code, then if I come along and make a few changes should I have equal say and control over the project?
