I have got some kind of success story in a company where I work. It manufactures different server solutions, network attached storages and so on. Because of financial crisis it was not able to pay for very expensive proprietary software for those NASes. And there was a decision to create own free software replacement for it. And we perfectly succeeded with it and with contribution to some other free software projects! -- Happy hacking, Sergey Matveev FSF Associate member #5968 | FSFE Fellow #1390
