- Optaros has launched its Enterprise Open Source Directory.It is a very good thing, better than a plate of Martha Stewart bran muffins.

- Open source value in corporate blogs
- Blogging itself is 10 and so technically is corporate blogging, since Dave Winer right was running Userland Software when he launched Scripting News in 1997.Enough time has now gone by to draw some conclusions, about the value such blogs may have and who should be doing them.The best corporate blogs, like...

- Does open source make business decisions political?
- Of all the relationships changed by open source, perhaps the most nagging is that between business and politics.There's another taste of that in today's news, word the BBC is looking to make an open source version of its iPlayer.The BBC had made a business decision to work with Microsoft in...

- More on the Windows work process
- About a decade ago I wanted to compare OCR error rates for various packages and in the process of doing that got an abject lesson in both PC work process productivity and the reasons people prefer it.What happened was that a client was setting up a Sun based Resumix system...

- How will open source do in a talent-short age?
- We're not partying like it's 1999, but a Deloitte survey of CEOs finds that there is a growing shortage of technology talent, and some companies are trying to accommodate programmers' needs again, rather than try to squeeze them into penguin suits.How will open source do in this new environment? Very...

- Mainframes, IFL, and Linux
- (Note: This is a re-run - from May 16, 2006)The IFL, or integrated facility for Linux, is a mainframe CPU license that's limited to running Linux.Novel has yet to post SuSe licensing costs for the new z9 series mainframes, but charged $13,999 per year per "processing engine" on the...

- BBC takes political hits for rejecting open source
- The BBC wants to put its shows on the Web, and made a deal with Microsoft for the technology required to do that. (That's the Tardis, from Dr. Who, one of many fine BBC programs.)This has the BBC in political hot water. Boingboing says it's a DRM issue, but the country's Open...

- Moore's second law proves need for open source
- Everyone knows Moore's Law, the idea that chip complexity can double every year or two.Fewer acknowledge Moore's Second Law, which is that development costs rise alongside this complexity.Something like that exists in software, and this has made open source a vital ingredient in innovation.Take Eclipse Europa, which is due out...

- Case studies in an open source world
- The folks at Liferay gave me a singular honor yesterday.They put me in touch with Ron Cash.Cash is one of the heroes. As Tim Duncan is to a sportswriter, or Hillary Clinton is to a political writer, so folks like Cash are to me. He manages computer systems for Colorado state government, specifically for the...

- The era of big software is over
- When Bill Clinton said a decade ago that "the era of big government is over," it turns out he was a big premature.But now with Web 2.0, SOA and web services, it may be true that "the era of big software is over."Bill St. Arnaud (right, from his blog) meditated...

- The consensus process and SOA
- I appreciated the comment-swarm around last week's piece on consensus. But I am afraid many missed the key word in the headline.The word is mysterious.
