I'm all for open discussions.

 From a personal perspective, I maintain that a company's influence in 
the OpenStack sphere from the very start of the OpenStack project has 
been directly proportional to that company's contribution -- in code and 
operational expertise -- to the project. If a company wants more 
influence in the OpenStack ecosystem, there is a tried and true method 
of obtaining it: increase the amount of contribution the company makes 
to the project.
