Picking a technology for internal use
The only kinds of proprietary software Freelock actually pays for are development and testing tools – tools we use to actually create our work products, or provide us with access to tools we otherwise can’t support (e.g. testing across a bunch of browsers we don’t have).

Picking a technology for a client project
Aside from the technologies we choose to develop expertise in and market prominently, we can support a range of related technologies without much trouble. Given our experience and expertise, this means we’re comfortable in just about anything in PHP. If a client comes to us with an existing platform and want our support with it, we’re happy to provide it.

Why have a technology decision-making process?
In short, choosing a particular technology allows us to:
-
Make a decision once and leverage the results over and over
-
Increase profitability
-
Increase developer satisfaction

Mailing List or Forum? A theory...
I think the discussion has come up at least twice on every mailing list I'm on: Why don't we move this discussion to a web-based forum?
