Maybe they mean pigeon to make it sound like he isn't able to be a seagull manager. Like he's trying to be a seagull manager, but only managed pigeon manager. A quiet insult.

I'd go further and regulate that it must be documented protocols and you must able to change the servers used if you choose.

Same with any computer, if you don't have admin, you don't own it.

Yep. This stuff must be open source. The owner should be the actual owner, with full administration rights, and source and schematic.
