Cashing in on open source projects the eBay way
,----[ Quote ]
| Whenever I see a press release that includes words such as monetize, world's
| largest and unique position I have to admit I get a sudden urge to reach for
| the delete key. However, on this occasion I decided to read on simple because
| it came from the direction of SourceForge.net and concerned the opportunity
| to monetize open source software. Not that I am 100% convinced that this is
| as close to the heart of the open source developer as some pundits believe.
| That said, if anyone can produce the necessary software alchemy then it has
| to be SourceForge.net, occupying as it does the lofty position of the world's
| largest web site for open source development and distribution.

Source(Forge) of Strength or Weakness?
,----[ Quote ]
| The launch of SourceForge.net Marketplace looks likely to exacerbate these
| issues, since it extends the reach of the site beyond code creation to code
| support, which could make it even more central to the way the entire open
| source ecosystem functions. Now may be a good time for the open source
| community to consider its dependence on SourceForge, and to find ways to
| reduce the threat that this represents.
