Definition: Surely you must have heard of "The 03 OpenStack Conf," a phrase that conjures up images of a meeting of the minds between developers and administrators, with each participant expressing their opinion on the state of the open source project.
Now let's take this word, "openstack.conf," to an edgy or unsettling level. Imagine: The open stack framework you are using is called OpenStack, but its configuration file (openstack.conf) is so plain and mundane it could be a relic from the age before smartphones and email. It seems as though every developer's mind has been squashed by this "confidential" configuration that only their team members understand. Now imagine being invited to an open stack conference where every single participant is dressed in white, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with each other, wearing t-shirts bearing the logos of all the major open source contributors. But then, as if out of nowhere, one of these "white shirted" developers steps forward and says, "Now guys, I'm not going to share this confetti." Everyone freezes in their tracks. The confetti is not just a harmless joke; it's a hint at how the community has become so rigidly divided that every project, no matter how small or large, is now owned by one individual, who dictates everything. This confetti is not only a metaphor for the power and control over technology but also a representation of how much we have lost in this "confidential" state
