Who Are Those Guys? In case you worry whether you can rely on the flaky developers of open-source products, consider that "58 percent of the open-source community is made up of professional IT administrators and programmers (with 11 years of professional experience, on average), and 30 percent of them will have to answer to their bosses if they don't write open-source code." That should help make your case for the CFO and the Board of Directors. [Back in March, Chris Kock wrote this interesting sidebar to a feature article on Your Opensource Plan in CIO Magazine.]

Apache Has 31 Bugs. "Code in the Apache open source Web server Version 2.1 is on par with that found in commercial equivalents, according to a study by Reasoning, which provides code inspection services." Like, "Duh!" Don't know why they had to do all that reasearch. Just ask anyone who's had to run even a medium-sized web site. If they found "31 software defects in 58,944 lines of source code," I hope they fixed 'em while they were at it. [Source: InfoWorld.]
