Open source: Pretty much right on track
With the close of the old year, and the advent of the new, it's very easy to sit back and start reflecting on where open source has been and where it's going.
But as I feel myself being drawn into the age-old year-end tradition, I suddenly shake my head and ask myself: why bother? Why be introspective and start dreaming of a better future? Or lamenting the good old days?
The simple fact of the matter is, open source is right where it needs to be: a powerful, accepted force in the software industry where real innovation is happening every day.
Who can ask for more than that?
I mean, seriously.
