quick, deprecate all the things that are open.

the wave of openneness that started with the web is being extinguished everywhere. mind you, one could improve XMPP, or come up with an open alternative. But this is no longer the focus. Short term money and numbers is/are the focus, as per pre-web companies.

This model always end up being bad for the masses of course, and only good for a few.
