Many have a specific image of open source. To some, the image is, “If I build it, they will come.” For others, “It’s unregulated, the Wild West, and not dependable.” And others, “It’s how we do business.” In this talk, PJ discusses open source as it stands today, the best way to use open source, and how to be a participant and good open source citizen.
