However, since we have a good deal of open source developers here, this may still be of interest:<br>
<br>What's interesting is that having Open Source Software is a poo-poo for some business deals (it can reduce the value of the company/deal):<br><br><a href="http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=99355BB0-1A64-6A71-CEE6D933989C9C29" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(7, 77, 143); ">http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=99355BB0-1A64-6A71-CEE6D933989C9C29</a><br>
