"IN INFORMATION technology there seems to be a revolution every other week. At 
least that is the impression one gets when following media coverage of the 
sector. Yet sometimes the hype is justified, in particular in the case of open- 
source software, free programs developed by loosely knit groups of developers. 
Within just 15 years they have completely changed the landscape of the software 
industry, turning it from a mostly capitalist economy into a mixed one."


Interesting material in this review.
