I object to the term "communistic". Think about it - are public roads "communistic"? What about universities and research labs?
What I am saying that good code is more likely to come out of something that is run more like a research lab than a commercial entity. So the production any code that has a wide base of application, eg. OS, web/database/authentication/file server, desktop environment, office suite definitely belongs there. Custom code is a different story, but the creation of it would be so much less expensive if there already existed a freely available powerful base to build on.
