Enterprise Search Reaches Open Source Maturation Point
,----[ Quote ]
| We're on the cusp of yet another evolution in maturation of open source with
| the advent of open source search engine technology. Over the past few years
| we've seen the Apache Lucerne and Solr projects grow from being interesting
| computer science projects to mission-critical tools that over 4,000 companies
| now use. As a result, it was only a matter of time before start-up companies
| such as Lucid Imagination started to form with the goal of making it easier
| to bring open source search engine technology into the enterprise.

Winding Road Leads Skyway to Open Source Code-Generation Framework
,----[ Quote ]
| It's hard to overstate the impact that open source technologies have had on
| the software industry. One recent example: Skyway Software, provider of an
| open-source code-generation framework for Spring-based applications, called
| Skyway Builder. The Tampa-based company last week announced the general
| availability of Skyway Builder 6.1, which is all about delivering Java EE
| apps for Spring. But the company started out going in a different direction.

Open Source E-Commerce: Twelve Promising Programs
,----[ Quote ]
| Small business owners, rejoice! Last year while the Big Three — osCommerce,
| Zen Cart, & CRE Loaded — open source commerce teams made mega-blunders or
| didn't do anything noteworthy, dozens of smaller teams were hard at work
| taking advantage. The difference between open source and proprietary became
| almost indistinguishable except to developers, with some open source programs
| now selling for more money than proprietary programs.
