Cameron Purdy:
Sometimes I read these rants about how open source automatically obtains magical god-like quality. It’s true in a twisted way: The ten open source projects that religious open source advocates will choose to point to probably have better quality than the average non-open-source product. My advice is to look at open source with an open but critical mind, the same way you should look at non-open-source products. Don’t get caught up in the religion, because in the end, there’s still poison in that kool-aid.
