It'll Be an Open-Source World

Dave Winer linked to this story with the byline "More evidence that the open source bubble has burst." Well excuse me, I don't see how anyone could come to that conclusion. Hopefully Dave will explain his remarks further in the inevitable discussion that will follow this statement. Here's one thread - which includes a link to How Zope Reached The Open Source Business Decision cited in this message.
