In the current issue of the Milken Institute Review, an economics
journal (see http://www.milkeninstitute.org/poe.cfm?point=review for the
Overview page) there is an article about Open Source software - giving
an economic perspective:
David Evans of National Economic Research
Associates examines at the success of
�free� software such as the Linux operating
system. He respects their accomplishments,
but predicts that the heavy lifting in software
will continue to be done by commercial
producers.
