Killing Open Source

adventuresinoss.com

NOTE: As usual, this blog expresses my opinions and not those of my employer\nI first got exposed to modern open source in the late 1990s, and I think it was via Red Hat Linux version 5, or perhaps version 6 (note: this was before Red Hat Enterprise Linux).\nI say “modern” open source because in the late 1970s/early 1980s a lot of computer code was shared via hobbyist magazines. While not expressly open source, you could see the code (’natch) and obviously modify it. I was too young to worry about whether or not I had the freedom to share those modifications, and as the only young person in my small town with a computer there weren’t any people to share it with, if I could.\n
