I have been looking at the Stonehenge incubator project on the Apache Software Foundation web site. I happened to look at their blog at http://blogs.apache.org/foundation/ and saw that today marks the 10 year anniversary of the founding of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). In the past I have been critical of open source software. I still don’t get the business model but I do also the sharing of code and ideas as being much the same as what I do as a Microsoft Regional Director. I can respect the passion of the individual contributors and the desire of individuals to create high quality software. So I will say to everyone who has contributed to the success of ASF, congratulations.
