Incorrect. FOSS was the original code profile. MS came along and started selling their code--much to the chagrin of the rest of the developer community.
That wasn’t my understanding, but I am admittedly ignorant of the open source roots. I took my cues from popular collegiate sympathy for open source. I’m in my early 30s, so I came into Linux prior to its popularity.
Would you agree, however, that the open source community has grown into an organic community of self-checking programmers and hackers (non-malicious incarnation of hacker in this case)?
