10-Year Anniversary of Open Source

Posted by kdawson on from the corks-a-poppin dept.

Bruce Perens writes "Saturday is the 10-Year Anniversary of Open Source, the initiative to promote Free Software to business. Obviously, it's been incredibly successful. I've submitted a State of Open Source message discussing the anniversary of Open Source, its successes, and the challenges it will face in the upcoming decade."

    Yes, you are the man! Open Source is yours.

    I got a question though...what have you done lately other than be a mouth. And your Wikipedia article makes it sound like your shit don't stink.

    I've been around a long time also, and I remember when people would roll their eyes and distance themselves from you. You pop your head up when your name is fading and throw things like, "I canonized" or "When Richard and I were in Italy" like that somehow makes you relevant anymore.

    Also I love the whole "my blog is a mature Slashdot" reference.

    Go away.
