I was going to respond to this thread originally with Linux comments.  Here 
they are:

If Linux made cameras they would give you a light tight box, paper and silver 
salts.  How you use it is up to you.  Some people would be satisfied with 
pin-hole cameras and rudimentery film.  Others would grind their own lenses 
and develop there own versions of SLRs, view cameras, rangefinders, etc. and 
provide instructions and materials to whomever wanted to build them. Many 
would come up with similar bodies and lenses but none would be exactly 
compatible with any others.  Large corporations would try to find ways to 
make money off of them and try to introduce "standards" that would never take 
hold.
