Sun has given every possible indication that Open Solaris will be run as a true
open source project. The latest indication is the make-up of the board
of directors:

Roy Fielding,
Al Hopper,

Rich Teer.

Open Development Internally: "Following on the success of its
Eclipse open-source development platform, IBM has quietly been using a
form of open-source development internally to create technology the
company will sell commercially.
IBM calls its model Community Source, which it defines as a
collaborative, internal, open-source-style environment for developing
and testing new technology.
Danny Sabbah, vice president of strategy and technology for the IBM
Software Group, in Armonk, N.Y., said IBM is using its Community
Source model across 100 projects and 2,000 developers in the company.
These projects span the IBM Software Group, Systems Group, Research
and Global Services, he said."
Very interesting. I'd like to learn more about that. What parts of the
so called open source development process have they built into the
Community Source model? I've found that most developers have different
definitions of the open source development process (via
Ross
Gardler).

04/07/2005 01:23 PMSudhir Gandotra is an open source marketeer par excellence. He is best
known for Kalculate, an accounting package for the Linux desktop, but
Gandotra has been providing support for Linux desktops for almost a
decade. In this interview he talks of various open source adoption
barriers that exist in India, his experience marketing a product that
mandates the use of a non-standard operating system, and the reasons
behind his Linux desktop for India.

07/08/2004 05:13 PMJames Gosling is a 20-year veteran of Sun Microsystems and wears many
hats at the company, including vice president and Sun fellow and CTO
for the vendor?s Java Development Platform and Tools group. But the
T-shirt-clad Gosling is perhaps best known as the father of the
ubiquitous Java programming language. InfoWorld Editor at Large Paul
Krill spoke with Gosling at the 2004 JavaOne Conference last week
about Java, including the current open source controversy, and about
other technology issues, such as his feelings about rival Microsoft.

08/03/2004 10:28 AMwashingtonpost.com - Plenty of tech experts have spent years trying to
convince the general public that the Linux operating system is
becoming more of a threat to Microsoft's Windows. With the LinuxWorld
conference underway this week in San Francisco, there is finally a
sure-fire sign that this may be the case: Microsoft won't be there.

to make obtaining a patent easier within Europe. Such patents may
cause Open Source software such as PHP to infringe on existing
licenses and new ones, meaning we would no longer be safe to
distribute PHP within Europe. Contact your EU Representative to get
this cruicial vote blocked. Find out more at the campaign website

KDE as an example of an open source project based upon collaboration
without hierarchies. As part of his work he has conducted interviews
with KDE developers, participated in several open source conferences,
analysed the KDE home page, and distributed a questionnaire among
volunteers. We asked him about his thoughts on the KDE development

A model for open source software
development
A model for open source software
development
05/25/2004 11:36 AMCritics of open source software have argued that, from an economic
standpoint, "giving the product away" makes no sense. As a new
business model, open source has been the victim of many misconceptions
and mischaracterizations: that it's the equivalent of communism,
that's it's like a virus, and that it's economically dangerous to
society, for example. In such a hostile atmosphere, it's not easy to
objectively assess a new paradigm that differs greatly from the status
quo. However, though a comparable model may not exist in the IT
sector, a parallel working model for open source already exists in at
least one other field, biomedical research, and this model has been
proven to be of great benefit to society.

06/19/2004 05:49 AMThe Jukebox Mode of Innovation: a Model of Commercial Open
Source Development by Joachim Henkelhttp://opensource.m
it.edu/papers/henkel.pdfAbstract by
author:In this paper, I explore the circumstances under
which innovation processes without secrecy or intellectual property
protection are viable, and where free revealing of innovations is a
profit-maximizing strategy. Motivated by an empirical study of
embedded Linux, I develop a duopoly model of quality competition.
Firms require two complementary technologies as inputs, but differ
with respect to the relative importance of these technologies. I find
that a regime with compulsory revealing can lead to higher product
qualities and higher profits than a proprietary regime. When the
decision to reveal is endogenized, equilibria with voluntary revealing
arise, again superior to the proprietary outcome.

01/17/2004 10:45 PMRIYADH, Saudi Arabia -- Computers and the Internet are just starting
to penetrate the Mideast, and since most residents of most countries
here are dirt-poor, Linux and open source are "naturals" for the
region. There is also a fast-growing market for Arabic-language
commercial software (or software services based on open source
applications), and it seems that half of the region's governments have
decided their country should become "the" developer of Arabic-language
software. Saudi Arabia, where I'm writing this, is pouring massive
government funds into an effort to build a software industry. But it's
possible that cultural and political factors may be more important
than government aid in encouraging software development. If this is
so, Saudi Arabia may be wasting its money, and should look at changing
its society instead. Note: This is #5 in a series of five "Dispatches
from Saudi Arabia." You may want to see #1, #2, #3, and #4 before you
