I disagree. Everybody wins only if the API team fixes everything that leads to a request for help, and documents everything they find themselves giving input on. An open forum is the only guaranteed way to be sure everybody wins.
And I respect their API team a lot, especially for the changes made since the FriendFeed acquisition.
I see what you mean. There are always things that could go wrong. The API team not fixing the requests isn't really Zuck's fault (maybe a hiring problem or a vision problem). But it doesn't seem like he's inviting them in to steal their ideas or anything of that nature.
He just wants good, honest collaboration that helps both parties.
