Yes, it's looking good. I saw this yesterday and appended some relevant past
articles which suggest it's inevitable. It has gone on for quite some time.
What's curious is the fact that my Web sites get a lot of traffic from the
Netherlands. It's at number 5 or so, among all nations, which seems to
indicate that there's open source affinity there. It's not even normalised by
population size!
