[olug] Open Enterprise/Open Source

[Jeff Hinrichs]

I was going through my weekly emails and came across this piece.  Normally
I wouldn't forward something like this to the list but if anyone is
championing Open Source at their workplace these resources may prove
valuable to your cause.

TODAY'S INTERNET INSIGHT:
Yesterday, we announced the launch of a new site, The Open Enterprise  (
http://www.theopenenterprise.com ). Today, we preview a more detailed
look at what you'll find on the site. In particular, we want
to highlight the first two exhaustive features on the site. The first
looks very closely at what exactly constitutes an "open enterprise" --
we look at strong examples of companies making use of open source and
open-standard technology to revamp how they do business. Perhaps even
more notable is the first cut of results from our survey on enterprise
use of "open" technologies. Included are 16 data charts that detail
enterprise thinking on open source and which you can use to support
your own decision-making on "open enterprise" technology. -- Richard
