| Johnson also says he has no special insight into what Microsoft is up
| to, but he doesn't think it matters all that much. It won't change

| "Customers have long since decided open source is safe to use. In
| our space, it is hard to find any enterprise customer that does not
| use a lot of open source," he noted. Leading closed source products
| from IBM, BEA and Oracle use Apache, Samba and other open source
| internally, he added.
