Use of Free Software and “Viral Marketing”

Maybe you have already heard about XMPP client for Android – “Xabber”, which is unfortunately proprietary.

Recently the company have declared that in case if they will get 50k followers on twitter the source code for their application will be opened and apparently released under GPL.

It is disputable whether such “viral marketing” is good for Free Software movement, but interested people can join this effort to Free another Android application by following Xabber twitter.
