FOSS: Project Busking, Funding Software Development

,----[ Quote ]
| Instead of busking, I’d like to see projects organise rock concerts. Lots of 
| projects are awesome enough and selling tickets for real development 
| shouldn’t be as hard as we might think. I noticed the Creative Commons 
| project for Peach and “Yo! Franky” were set up like this, perhaps they have 
| some advice when it comes to organising such a project?

How many billions is open-source software worth?

,----[ Quote ]
| In other words, using OSS isn't about being anti-Microsoft or believing in
| some sort of open-source ethical rightfulness, using OSS is simply a smart
| business move. Indeed, at $387-billion in value, OSS is twice as valuable as
| Microsoft's current net worth of $183.5-billion. Not bad for 'free software'
| is it?
