****************** As long as you keep a proven design package on the sidelines, and as long as through-put is not a big issue and deadlines have breathing room and your boss doesn't mind paying for design time that might have to be redone when an open source package fails you, I see no reason not to try open source. However, your management might also want to carefully examine the reasons for going to open source.
