The high value of Free Software
,----[ Quote ]
| I was recently pointed to Ohloh which "collects software metrics
| from a variety of sources including the project's source code and
| the software development infrastructure used by the project's
| development team". This allows them to put an estimated value to
| an Open Source project in terms of the financial resources it
| would take someone else to replicate the effort.
|
| While FLOSS may not have a marginal licensing fee, I find this
| type of site extremely useful in reminding people of just how
| valuable the software is.

Even former (and prominent) Microsoft employees turn to GNU/Linux and FLOSS.
