[Sderby] Grauniad IT

[Dominic Knight]

Jack Schofield of the Guardian newspaper certainly makes it clear 
which side of the fence he sits on with his article on page 22 of 
the Inside IT section today. His misguided article misses the point 
entirely on the subject of opensource, his suggestion that that bug 
fixes can introduce as many problems as they solve, I considered 
particularly poor quality reporting as this is just (if not more) 
applicable from a closed source perspective. While agreeing that 
changes can be made by companies using open source software he 
implies that they are not often accepted by the group organising the 
project, missing the point that it is rarely even possible to 
suggest changes to a closed source project.

Well, read it yourself if you get a chance.

Still annoyed,
Dominic.
