I hope it's not too late to respond and be counted. When I first read
the above sentence the word 'completely' in front of 'open source'
struck me. What does it mean? Are we about to create yet another 'open
source' acronym? Does OSS mean nothing and COSS is the only real open
source?
FWIW, IMO, there's a very big difference between *open* source and
*available* source. The difference is usually determined by the focus
on the company vs. a focus on the community. But I could go either way
on the use of the word 'completely'.
