Information availability defines markets. Thanks to open source, the new software market is becoming a dynamic commodity-based free market. To see where software is going, we need to look at markets that have had good information for a long time. Today, strategies that work for selecting coffee beans and hiring baseball players are becoming useful for choosing software. This presentation will show examples of companies using open source not just as a generic replacement for existing software, but as an enabler for creating new value, and cover how we're learning to create value not just from the code itself, but from the information about software quality and interoperability that collaborative development makes available.
