Enterprise Open Source News

Ian Tree, chief architect at IT consultancy Hadleigh Marshall Netherlands b.v. has initiated an interesting movement: ask to IBM to transform the Notes/Domino product line into an Open Source, Community Development offering. Notes/Domino has been loosing traction in the past with the rise of Web technologies. Notes/Domino is still a cash cow for IBM. It is probably a large and complex piece of software probably not ready to be managed by a community. Anyway, Ian’s arguments make sense. Read his open letter and vote for or againt the idea on IdeaJam.
