Mailing List del Fortunae LUG ============================= Questa e' passata su full-disclosure, ve la forwardo perche' secondo me spiega ottimamente il panorama attuale dell'IT e le strategie dei big nei confronti del fenomeno Open Source. [cut from news.com] The U.S. Defense Department should think twice before embracing open-source software, a trade association is advising. The Initiative for Software Choice, which counts Microsoft, Cisco Systems and Intel among its backers, said in comments filed Tuesday that the department should "avoid crafting needless and potentially detrimental IT policy to promote the use" of open-source software. "Open source" means every software developer can view the source code for software, modify it, and use it for free. ^^^^^^^^^ In buona sostanza, l'open source che da' fastidio e' quello che non si puo' vendere. Quando leggo queste cose mi vien voglia di farmi frate francescano. -- BlueRaven There are only 10 types of people in this world... those who understand binary, and those who don't. -- Le raccomandazioni della mamma di simon "non prendere freddo, copriti... e prendi il palmare"
