    Interesting read:

    'Kroah-Hartman replied that "Competitors rely on each other to survive. Marketing and suits can fight, but they know and we [the developers] know that we're in this together." Axboe explained, "Our work runs across companies." Besides, Garrett added, "These people are my friends. We like each other." To which, Chinner replied "We're working on a common goal. No single company has the expertise to do the job." '


    That's far beyond what was ever imagined by "closed source" approach and probably legal departments are still struggling with those ideas in some places :-)


    P.S. Every time I post something about linux I think that the name of the forum is misleading
