Interesting article in the grauniad (final para):-

        Firefox deserves to succeed, but even if it does not it will
        have highlighted the astonishing success of open source, well
        known inside the web community but not outside. Among other
        services, it has its own operating system (Linux), an acclaimed
        alternative to Microsoft Office (OpenOffice), and its own
        encyclopedia (Wikipedia) with a million entries. The open source
        movement has become one of globalisation's unexpected treasures.
