My Master Thesis which will be published in about three weeks does almost the exact same thing. I've constructed a model with 8 criteria that are used to rate Open Source software. The goal of the model is to explain what makes Open Source software unique and what things you have to look for in an Open Source project (things like community, documentation, security, etc).
I got beaten to the punch with this one.. I do think my model has something to add to this though.
Anyone interested should check my website at http://www.karinvandenberg/ at the end of august, I'll post an announcement there when my thesis is published.
Depends on the use of the server doesn't it? I DO care if my webserver runs the three years old PHP 4.1.2
One could also wonder if vulnerabilities in old packages are less and less likely to be patched over time because they are being used less. That does concern me.

They where already experiencing slowness due to othe r media attention, as is stated (in Dutch) on their website. On my end it's just very slow BTW...
Libraries are not by definition free. At least not when checking out materials. In the Netherlands you pay an annual fee for a library pass.
