"I wish the acquisition of @openclaw rewarded everyone who contributed to the GitHub and everyone who has used the platform. Were still not getting distributed ownership and open source biz models right. @steipete built it but it took an army yet from what it sounds only one will be rewarded. I wish that wasnt the case. I could be wrong tho"
