I still have yet to see what major advantages Jahia provides over say Jetspeed,
or any other Portal solution.  Is there a better whitepaper I should read?
Maybe a Jetspeed vs Jahia smackdown document :)

I would just like to point out that true Freedom lies outside of market
conditions.  Just because the market changes doesn't mean it becomes ethical to
develop proprietary software.

That said I also think that due to current market conditions it actually makes
LESS sense to buy a proprietary product.  I mean if market conditions are bad
why would you pay $$$ to buy a proprietary product :)

It saddens me to see you guys going in the wrong direction :(
