For the 'industry', it has been a lack of education until recently. With
IBM embracing open source (their portal product is JetSpeed, their basic
http server is Apache, their AS/400 and S/390 systems run Linux partitions,
etc.) more people are now waking up to open source products as a viable
alternative. However, no matter how educated some people are, they still
can't accept a solution unless some mammoth vendor will support it (i.e.
IBM). The operations manager at my company has this mentality and it
boggles my mind. But, when a problem happens the e-mail distributed says
"The vendor is working on it..."

I'd rather invest in staff knowledge than invest in vendor reliance.

That's my opinion...

Hewlett Packard seems to be using Cocoon2 in their "Web Services"
offering!
