We have build many extensions to improve the

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

But it is propriety software. So it can not be used.
My question is here : Please convince me I have to make my propriety

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.
