Add New Vector about awesome-open-company HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @waldyrious,

(n.b. I just made myself public on that org, I did not realise I wasn't)

Thank you for thinking of us as an addition for your list.

Might be worth including our other GitHub organisation: https://github.com/matrix-org. We keep the pure matrix-related work separate from https://github.com/vector-im, which is used for New Vector specific work, such as Riot.

One last thing, to clarify that Matrix is a broadly used protocol of which Riot is simply the most established and adopted client, perhaps include a link to https://matrix.org/docs/projects/try-matrix-now.html, where we collect software which incorporates the protocol.

All the information about New Vector itself is fair and correct though, so thank you again for choosing to include us!

@waldyrious that's fine, just wanted to make the New Vector/Matrix relationship clear.

Nothing is expected of you, by the way; I plan to add the entry to the list myself shortly. In the meantime, we'd love to hear your thoughts about this project!

Hi Ben, thanks for the feedback.

This list is actually focused on companies, i.e. for-profit organizations, with the goal to highlight commercial business models that embrace openness in ways that challenge the common beliefs that success in a corporate environment requires secrecy, zero-sum competition or primarily extrinsic motivators.

If we were to include non-profits or organizations/projects like Matrix.org, the list would become too long to be interesting, and would lose the focus that gives it its value. I hope that makes sense to you!

ps - in the interests of keeping the git graph readable, I'll wait until #43 is merged before opening a new one adding New Vector.
