Hi Amit,
This is certainly a 'disruptive' idea. But, it comes with its own share of
challenges especially if politics comes into play. Plus, there's the issue
of accountability, which you'll need to build into this model for clients
to have faith.
There's a book titled 'Maverick' where the leadership created a similar
environment (though not exactly the same), and that too in an old-economy
organisation! So this is definitely plausible.
If you've not read the book--suggest you get a copy--you're bound to find
some great ideas to make your idea a success.
And, if this firm does take shape--LFY will be more than happy to talk
about it. If need be, we could assign a venue for your team to do a BoF on
the same topic at LinuxAsia 07.
Wishing you and your team the very best!
Regards
Rahul Chopra

Hi all,
We are a group of people who firmly believe in Open Source.
We intend to bring the management model of Linux to other fields of
human endeavor. We are moving towards that by establishing an open
source software services company that guarantees income to a
programmer through FOSS. The income generated for the company through
services will be distributed completely to the programmers involved.
The management will also be given a fixed salary only. There will be a
minimum guarantee on income and a proper structure to monitor the
programmers performance. the best part is, that all knowledge
generated by this company will be put in open source.
For more details you please refer this website .

We want feedback and suggestions on it.
We want to explore all possibilities before we proceed and do it.
As we all will be in Delhi for Linux Asia 2007 .
Can we meet there ? So we can share our views .
My contact number is 9226745408 .
Thanks
Amit.
