Shuttleworth: Oracle's Sun buy validates open source

,----[ Quote ]
| He argued that the major sources in software today are either free software 
| or powered by free software, Google Yahoo etc. 
| 
|     "The fact that Oracle has just announced a multi-billion dollar 
|     acquisition of a company that describes itself as the world's biggest 
|     Free Software and Open Source company to me is enormously instructive," 
|     Shuttleworth said. "To me it suggests that it cements the idea that open 
|     source and free software are the big game in town. And everyone is trying 
|     to figure out what that means and how they integrate it, what' they can't 
|     do is ignore it."
