Closing Open-Source Gaps by Developing a Policy
,----[ Quote ]
| Major companies such as IBM, Oracle Corp., Sun Microsystems Inc., Sony
| Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Co. have incorporated open-source software in
| their products, and some companies have shifted major software products
| from a commercial to an open-source licensing model. For example, Sun
| Microsystems Inc. released its Solaris operating system and CA Inc.
| released its Postgres database software under open-source licenses.
| Even the U.S. Department of Defense, in a recent strategic report on
| its IT needs, advocated the use of open-source software.
