'IBM Turns to Open Source Development.' '...we need to move to a development system that allows us much greater transparency, and a much greater awareness and cross pollination of expertise, ideas and requirements between all of the various different laboratories.' Their speaking of using an 'open source model' for internal development is what prompted the article in the first place. If they had said, 'We will be using a distributive development model, that gives wide access to the source code among our developers, but by the by, we won't be releasing the code to the public,' would there be the attention this article has got to get it on slashdot? Perhaps to complain that they aren't releasing the code; my complaint is they aren't releasing the code while still using 'open source' as a buzz word. It's either free (as in free speech), or it isn't.
