At first glance, my initial reaction is he's merely misinformed. However, after reviewing his blog and comments elsewhere; it's not just sad - it's outright funny how indoctrinated he is. We use a lot of proprietary software because we have a specific community we need to interoperate with, but in our case the scenario is not open VS closed, it's random assemblage of homebrew/proprietary software VS closed but standardized VS open. The latter would be ideal; but while interoperability within the open source "geostack" is good; integrating open source with proprietary is still a challenge.
