Open Source Paradigm Shift
This article by Tim O'Reilly is based on a talk that he first gave at Warburg-Pincus' annual technology conference in May of 2003. Since then, Tim has delivered versions of the talk more than twenty times, at locations ranging from the O'Reilly Open Source Convention, the UK Unix User's Group, Microsoft Research in the UK, IBM Hursley, British Telecom, Red Hat's internal "all-hands" meeting, and BEA's eWorld conference. Tim wrote it as an article for his book on open source, Perspectives on Free and Open Source Software, edited by J. Feller, B. Fitzgerald, S. Hissam, and K. R. Lakhani.
