CA Moves with New Open-Source Licensing

eWeek: CA Moves with New Open-Source Licensing for Content, Database Projects. This article has some dangerous flaws. Proprietary/open source dual-licensing can be done with the GPL; just look at MySQL. (I see the Plone Foundation themselves are fighting this bad reporting.) Also, Apache is not dual-licensed and IBM could have used it just as easily if it wasn't owned by the ASF, because the Apache License is so permissive. (Also, companies that create gratuitous new open source licenses are not on the Cluetrain, but at least it's not dangerous.)

Being the best doesn't always mean being the most popular. We all know of many inferior products that are immensely, sometimes perplexingly, popular. However, this does not mean that one must forsake the pursuit of excellence when pursuing a broad market share. As proponents of open source software, it should not be beneath us to pursue popularity or to look to proprietary developers as examples. And by following the right examples, we can help spread the usage of open source software without sacrificing the goal of software excellence.

 The meaning of the term "open source," is about to change, according to the Open Source Initiative (OSI), the group that determines whether or not software licenses can be called "open source." Board members of the volunteer organization have approved sweeping changes that will tighten up the way it classifies open-source licenses and, eventually, create a new "multi-tier" classification system that will favor some open source licenses over others.

http://www.linuxworld.com/story/43687.htm Microsoft needs to consider a partial open source model for code development if it hopes to survive the coming open source onslaught, says Paul Nowak. That's why, he argues, the reported source code leak of portions of the Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems today "has the potential to be the best thing that ever happened to Microsoft technically."
