Parece que, por nao poder competir com o SL, que tem um modelo

quem sabe como SL propriamente.
Sobre o assunto, notícia relacionada publicada há alguns dias.
Tradução livre de um trecho interessante: "Uma considerável fatia do
mercado tornou claro com suas carteiras que eles querem implantar e
rodar software open source. ( . . . ) O modelo de negócios ao redor
do software open source é faturar no ponto de valor, quando os
usuários estão prontos para passar à produção; isto é mais fácil de
entender e mais satisfatório para os usuários do que emitir grandes
cheques para licenças de software"
PHP Event: Open Source Accommodation Emphasized
Paul Krill, InfoWorld
Panelists representing companies such as Microsoft, Sun Microsystems,
IBM, and Oracle were queried at the Zend/PHP Conference & Expo on
Tuesday about commercial involvement in the open source arena. "It
seems to us from where we sit that there's really no choice," said
Tim Bray, a Web -oriented generalist at Sun and a co-inventor of XML.
"A substantial portion of the market has made it clear with their
wallets that they want to deploy and run open source software." "We
can't go back. It's too late," Bray said. The business model around
open source is monetizing at the point of value, when users are ready
to go into production; this is easier to understand and more
satisfying to users than writing big checks for software licenses,
Bray said. Generation of revenues in the open source market largely
has involved selling customer support services while offering the
software itself for free. An IBM official added that innovation,
which had occurred at the university and vendor levels, now is
happening in the open community at large. Panelists also touched on
the actual subject listed for the session: software stacks. This
sparked some sharp disagreements
over how easy it is to switch software platforms. The LAMP (Linux
Apache MySQL Perl/PHP/Python) stack, said panelist Marten Mickos, CEO
of MySQL, provides a heterogeneous platform that evolves on its own.
Bray added
that the LAMP stack is pretty swappable. Touching on the topic of
programming languages, Bray stressed that no language will dominate
anymore, not Java, PHP or Rails.
