We have build many extensions to improve the functionality of MediaWiki. It is for Enterprise use as Knowledge management infrastructure. The name of the extensions and additional functionality is Wikibox Blue. The software is propriety.
It can be hosted as SAAS
Today there has been a request if automatic signing of thread is possible in the discussion page. This is standard functionality in WikiForum. Which can be used in the talk namespace.
But it is propriety software. So it can not be used.
My question is here : Please convince me I have to make my propriety software open source.
You really shouldn't make it open source. If your business model at all involves making money directly off these extensions, then open-sourcing it will remove any barrier whatsoever to people paying you for them. It's simply absurd.
