I always liked the way EverythingMe approached open source.
Now that they are shutting down they are doing the same, open sourcing everything they can and being generally open with the plans and intentions for the future (of the code/product etc)
More companies should behave this way, just because the business didn't work, doesn't mean a lot of people can't benefit from the work you put in.

Thanks, as a member of the team I'm glad we got the opportunity to do this, if only for the selfish motive of reusing some of this code on my next job ;)

Kudos to the EverythingMe team for this.
