Is Red Hat Exchange DOA?
Via Dana & Matt, The Register reports that the Red Hat Exchange (RHX) "roars like a muted lamb". The Register's point is that RHX has met with a lukewarm reception to date.
After reading the following comment from Matt, with his VP of business development at Alfresco hat on, I wonder if The Register story is missing the point.
"So, again, in terms of traffic, it's not yet on par with Sourceforge and other avenues for us," Asay said. "But it has been surprisingly fruitful given the number of downloads and trials we've had through it. If we had this same ratio of download to trial to conversion on Sourceforge, we'd be IPO'ing tomorrow."
The open source community really doesn’t need another arena for projects to live and be downloaded from.
