I have to agree with you. The Open Source community efforts I've
see move much too slow to favor the professional, and BDS itself is just too
big to leave to a disparate group of self-interested parties. Look at the
Jedi group. They have one of the biggest followings around...more people
use their libraries than not, and yet they can't get the manpower to make
fixes to components that are years old! And one of the biggest reasons I
believe this is true is because committees or not, these groups are always
"run" by one or two devoted people who set down the rules and lead the way.
I've seen too many arguments among top-level members start on the open
groups and then be taken privately to even imagine what it must be like on
them! I realize this is as necessary as it is bad for them...such is life!

I fear that open source will KILL it.
Anyone interested in open source moved to Linux already.
