Typically data in a file system is no a good way of data management.
Stick it in a RDMS such as Oracle or Postgresel etc.
Security in File systems is weak compared with something like Lotus Notes/Domino which uses Public/Private keys and ACLs so deep they make NT look whimpy . All of these solutions are available under Linux.
Once in a database you can sort it, parse it etc much more easily. In terms of Code management stick to something like CVS.

I think that the biggest challenges for Linux are
1. Scalability (Linus seems more interested in laptops)
2. Security - there is a percieve lack of security from the corporate world and I realize that most of the security issues are actually from applications
3. Management tools - Management tools for multiple machines are rudementary. A system for management of 1000s of linux machines with one click would be nice instead of everyone writing their own perl scripts
Earnings, Future Earnings, revenue growth and profit margins.
The analysts don't like any of them. But the company is still worth 1.53 Billion - a lot more than VA
Lotus sued Borland about stealing the "look and feel" of 123.
Borland CEO complained about Lotus performing a "Cashectomy" on them.
Where did it get them? Lotus and Borland lost the market to Microsoft. Moral is suing on Look and feel doesn't get you anywhere. Stick to proprietary file formats like Microsoft and you are fine (ASF...etc).
I am desperately awaiting the 2.4 kernel. Three companies I work with are all waiting for the 2.4 kernel. Basically the number of processes and filehandles make the OS unscalable for our application (Lotus Domino). Currently out of the box it only will support about 150 concurrent users after tweaking.

In Taiwan the government has earmarked high speed access for all citizens and has put $3 Billion into making it possible. Canada lags....
