Hi all,

This article by John Carroll in ZDNet News is rather interesting, it throws the
question that FLOSS software is a direct challenge to IT industry long term
survival and is aid in the economic distress facing the industry.

"Software commoditization and its driving force, open source software, is given
too little attention. A large component of America's economy is information
technology, and free software undermines demand for such products, thus
hampering recovery and increasing the attractiveness of outsourced development.
