I've got a feeling : is Open Source at an inflexion point ?

| Open source = competitive solutions
| 
| More and more, open source software is 
| used/bought, not because it is open 
| source/free (speech/beer) but because it is 
| a good software (intrinsic value). The fact 
| that this software/solution is open source 
| is not the determining factor that make 
| customers buy it. On a head to head 
| competition with closed source alternative, 
| a bunch of open source players emerges 
| (Firefox, Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, 
| Tomcat, etc.) and are in a position to 
| become market-leaders.
