While they don't strictly deal with Open Source, the Electronic Frontier Foundation can always use more help and often have the same ideals as the Open Source movement.

Fanbois would queue up for a punch in the face if they thought Steve Jobs was selling them.

ESXi interface vs ESXi CLI - not even in the same league.
Bizarrely, there is STILL no way to set an MTU of 9000 using the GUI.

America != Internet

I have to admit to feeling slightly concerned over the amount of people recommending Zimbra, which have founded their business on Outlook integration with Linux. The submitter already has a neat Debian setup, so I don't really get why people would be pushing Microsoft lock-in onto them. If anything, we need to get away from that, and onto open standards.

The London Underground has been fully automated for years.
They sometimes even leave without their driver.

I got the warning about being accessed from China. Unfortunately, it came 2 days after I became aware of my gmail account and World of Warcraft account both being compromised. By that time I had already changed the password, and had Blizzard restore my stuff.
