Interesting prompt in my view. I was reading Stephen Arnold’s post Open Source Dust Up“. Some interesting facts, thoughts and questions behind success of open source companies. This is about money, not technology. Big surprise…

So, my question today is simple. Is there “silver bullet” for PLM Open Source? Is it something we’ll love because the current financial climate? And most important will companies focusing on open source in enterprise (and PLM) be able to make enough money from service, consulting and implementation?

Best, Oleg
