In true open source development, there's lots of visibility all the way through the development process.

What's kept Java from being used as widely as possible is there hasn't been an Open Source implementation of it that's gotten really widespread use.

"Einstein need not wait for an apple to fall"...That is the essence of Open Source Software..

The strategic marketing paradigm of Open Source is a massively-parallel drunkard's walk filtered by a Darwinistic process.

Open source can propagate to fill all the nooks and crannies that people want it to fill.

For me, open source is a moral thing.
