But in open source projects, work moves at the speed of the fastest member of the team, and adding more hands speeds things up rather than slowing them down, Devanbu said.

That's a rosy way of looking at it.

Speaking of open source, I watched the movie, "Antitrust" tonight.

Pretty average movie, but the subject matter was interesting. Bill Gates must hate this movie--the lead villain was his clone.
