A Primer on Europe for US-Based Open Source Communities and Vendors
,----[ Quote ]
| Europe leads the world in open source software adoption and development. Open
| source solutions have greater market share in Europe than the rest of the
| world, both on the server and the desktop, and more open source developers
| live in Europe than on any other continent including North America. Only 18%
| of the developers on SourceForge live in the United States, while 33% live in
| the European Union (EU). European firms that contribute to open source
| projects account for about 565,000 jobs and have combined annual revenues of
| over â260 billion ($350 billion).
