- William Hurley, who goes by WHurley, has been an open source advocate and organizer for many years.When he left Qlusters recently for BMC Software, the Houston-based company which began with accounting software and grew like a snip of oilpatch, I wondered how far he could spin that company toward open source.The...

- Last year, in Massachusetts, we saw open source being used as a political football.
