| Open Source in 2009?
|
| Moreover, as a recent article in Wall Street and Technology) mentions, with
| the current economic situation cutting IT budgets, even more institutions are
| reconsidering their attitudes toward open source technology. Think about
| yourself and the company you work for: How many projects did you want to
| launch but needed to be put off until next year? How many business
| opportunities you believe you could have embraced if your budget had been
| friendlier?
|
| I firmly believe that Open Source opens the door for companies that are
| looking to keep on growing despite the current environment. It is spreading
| its influence among different kinds of companies.
