> If a company is looking for an open source work in the candidate CV it means they want to know if that person is keen on providing work for free. It means that the candidate shouldn't have problems staying over time without pay because it is his or hers passion.

I think this would honestly be a bad assumption to make. The people I've worked with that did the most amount of work on their own time have typically not done any OSS work.. because they were working on work stuff all the time. Those that dabbled in (non work related) OSS stuff often were able to do so because they had clearer boundaries between work/personal work.
