Brij’s One More Idea

Sample this quote from Julie DeCecco of Sun Microsystems:

"Do a
cost/benefit analysis early on to quantify what is the financial impact
of using open source,It might not be worth the cost. A
proprietary license might be the way to go"

9 out of 10 times fear works like a charm. Big question remains as to who defines the "financial impact" and what objective method they use to estimate that.
