Why the linux idea of open source is "Correct"
,----[ Quote ]
| You see, as a fact, collaborative innovation is the key to creating free
| software. Why? Because the concept has the ability to claim not one, but
| thousands of developers. Something that can be created for large amounts of
| money by a small team, can be created with thousands of the same experts who
| come from different backgrounds. The software that comes out is the software
| that is created by the user for the user, which is a very large advantage.
| Linux, for instance has come a long way, and much of its components such as
| the kernel owe its existence to open source.
