Yeah, I get that distinction, and the vagueness of the phrase 'open source' doesn't help with this kind of definition. If IBM put US$1B into 'Linux' 22 years ago - but this was a small part of their operating budget at the time - do we look at absolute or comparative value? If IBM buys, three years ago, RedHat for US$34B, does that mean IBM is now the biggest 'open source' company? (If so, the next question is obvious.) |
