[plug] Interesting article I think

[John Knight]

The part I'm surprised that no one has noticed/pointed out is that Microsoft 
were pointing towards open source being strung together by a bunch of people 
all over the world who've never met each other, no one seems to have pointed 
out that there are plenty of companies that are making and selling open 
source software, not just nerds in garages.

Make lunch, not war.
