Summary
Lichess, the open-source chess platform, has entered into a cooperation agreement with Take Take Take, who will use Lichess's infrastructure for their new play zone. This represents a significant win for open-source principles, as Take Take Take chose to leverage existing open infrastructure rather than building a proprietary 'walled garden' solution. The partnership demonstrates how companies can collaborate with open-source communities while respecting their values and principles.
