In a recent article former MySQL CEO and current Eucalyptus CEO Marten Mickos explores the impact that working on open source code has on an organization. Mickos, I suspect, is mostly talking about companies like Eucalyptus and MySQL that focus on creating open source and open core software - not companies that happen to contribute code to open source projects.
I found myself wondering, however, how many companies actually contribute back to the projects they use. Does your company?
