At its best, is open source unbeatable?
,----[ Quote ]
| The answer might well be no, as the top open-
| source projects are collaborative efforts
| between multiple companies that pool resources
| and expertise to drive development. And while it
| might seem reasonable that a single corporation
| could best open source's seeming "development by
| committee" approach, the reality is that well-
| managed open-source projects have none of the
| inertia that one might expect from a communal
| approach.

The Story Of Freeware
,----[ Quote ]
| People unfamiliar with the world of open-source
| software often presume its adherents to be
| hostile to property, profits and the other
| mainstays of capitalism. Not true. Bryant, for
| example, has plans for a for-profit program
| unrelated to WavPack, and both men say they
| would consider consulting engagements from
| companies trying to get the most out of their
| software.
