The Sharecropper Model for Commercial Open Source
,----[ Quote ]
| As I was running through my RSS feeds this morning, Roberto Galoppini pointed
| me to a post by James Dixon (the CTO of Pentaho) on the Beekeeper Model for
| Commercial Open Source (PDF).
|
| It references Geoffrey Moore’s Crossing the Chasm which I’ve used for years
| to drive our OpenNMS business, so it caught my attention. I haven’t blogged
| much about open core for awhile, but I thought this article deserved a closer
| look.

Using open source to reduce business risk
,----[ Quote ]
| So what’s the bottom line? if you’re big enough to make it pay, then bringing
| in open source development expertise connecting your operation to the world
| wide open source community gives you comparable or better software, better
| control, more downstream flexibility, and reduced risks - all pretty good
| things, right?
