Tim O'Reilly gives a visionary talk at EclipseCon 2005

http://www.eclipsecon.org/2005/sessions.php


"Open source isn't just about a set of software licenses, or even about a new style of distributed software development. It is a reflection of a world where the network is the platform, and where as a result, commodity software implements standardized protocols, and business advantage is driven by data lock in and network effects enabled by an "architecture of participation." The new paradigm changes all the rules of business. This talk will explore business model design patterns for the internet and open source era."

This man is not afraid of the future or change - he embraces it. Wonderful!
