Five reasons why your company should hire open source developers
,----[ Quote ]
| Open source has infiltrated so many levels of IT over the past decade. It has
| been a slow process; however, little by little, it has become a normality.
| And even though many companies are adopting open source software, they are
| hesitant to bring open source developers into the fold. Why is this?
|
| Many larger companies do not place any value on open source applications,
| therefore they do not place any value in those who code the applications.
| Some companies are afraid that hiring an open source developer would be a
| liability - possibly reverse engineering their proprietary software and then
| releasing forked versions into the community. Although these may sound like
| justifiable fears, they overlook some very important benefits that come with
| hiring open source developers.
