If you want to hear interesting things about the advantage of open source developement - listen to http://techcast.chariotsolutions.com/index.php?post_id=458384 (Sorry for referring to Red hat here - but the speech is not limited to red hat) Who wants to fly over the slides instead of listening: http://www.chariotsolutions.com/slides/pdfs/ete2009-ExonovationTieman.pdf What I liked most is: He pointed out, that no company can finance a real large amount of developers and in Open Source projects there are also usually working only a few full-time on a project, but the gain of the hundreds of contributors who file just a few or a single additional bug or do a little additional testing or fixing, bring a lot of gain. -- Martin Wildam http://www.google.com/profiles/mwildam -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
