New open source business models based on Xen
,----[ Quote ]
| When Linux was just Linux, and not capable of virtualizing other
| operating systems, the concept of the Linux OSV Supporting the OS
| and all open source components in the app stack that they deliver
| as part of the distro, was straightforward. The business model of
| the major distros is based on their ability to Support (that is,
| take a phone call from their customer, and deliver fixes where
| necessary) any of the technology they deliver in their product
| (whether or not they originally developed it). An open source
| product philosophy enables them to develop, debug and develop
| expertise in the entire stack that they deliver.
