Profiting from open source -- without selling out
,----[ Quote ]
| Zack Urlocker, a board member and executive
| for several open source companies, points
| out the trade-off between the degree of
| sharing and revenue: "Apache has a great
| license model that enables the wide
| adoption of open source software, but there
| have been few significant businesses --
| none approaching even $100 million in
| revenue -- based on a permissive license
| model" such as Apache's.
