While I would love to see LSF open sourced, I don't have quite the
faith you have, Rayson. IBM also has a lot of software that they don't
open source (LL being one!). I'm the one who mentioned openlava to
Chris, by the way. For the folks I deal with, it's got enough
functionality and horsepower to get the job done. And I'm motivated to
create some momentum around it so that it continues to improve.
