That's really surprising to hear that coming from you, Stewart.  You
seem to me to have a really good sense of how software should be built
and operated.  Also, it seems so obvious to me that open source code
is a value above, beyond, and antecedent to, the list of things you
mentioned above.  Seeing a disconnection between the two is kind of
jarring.

If the above list of wants (good, solid, stable, tested, documented,
and affordable) comprise your principles on this matter, what would
you stop at to get it?

A rhetorical question...
