Linux and open source development is not a zero sum game. This was the explicit message from Ubuntu Technical Architect Allison Randal's keynote speech at LinuxCon, but the sentiment had been articulated in a number of ways all week long from everyone here. The processes by which a company makes great open source software improve the world for everyone."Free software is a fundamentally superior model for developing software," Randal repeated several times. In addition to the classic Linus' Law ("given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow"), Randal put forward the claim that human beings long to be part of something greater than themselves, and free software development satisfies that in spades.
