Make just published this interview with Arduino founder Massimo Banzi about the internal schism that’s currently embroiling the Arduino community.
It is true that this represents only one side of the story, but it does seem that at a minimum, Arduino SRL (represented at http://arduino.org) has copied much of the Arduino LLC website without credit to the other creators. Whether that rises to the level of illegality, IMO it is, pardon my language, a dick move. The story spun on the arduino.org website here does not strike me as answering any of the criticisms, and has the general feel of dodging important questions.
Have any of the major Arduino distributors like SparkFun or Adafruit made any mention of how this internal spat is affecting their deals and supply chains?
