in reply to McCarthyism, Open Source & PM

My employer, seeing the power of the Open Source tools I have used and volume of usable code I have written with it are starting to consider Open alternatives to their long standing use of Proprietary software.

I was the only one using Open Source stuff here when I started. There are places where this pendulum is swinging the other way.

Good Luck.

    Same here--when I started at my current place of employment two years ago, my coworkers had barely heard of linux. I set up a box with a pathetic PI/266 and started scripting some of the more painful steps in our workflow. That caught some attention. Now we have a compute cluster with 20 dual cpu linux boxes.
