the point I'm trying to make is that open source is already the status-quo today. calling it a movement makes it sound like it might not be here to stay. movements come and go but open source is _the_ natural state for a SW to be in. the times when we had to battle Microsoft on ideological grounds on their claims that FOSS is a problem are long gone. Nobody at Microsoft today would claim that FOSS isn't here to stay without getting laughed at by their own colleagues.
