This is the essay paper http://www.geocities.com/sniphadkar/FOSS.pdf
i would love to respond to this, but i find it very difficult to comment on a pdf document - could you put up an stx or html version so readers can snip and comment? --
Sure ! would upload in xml very soon. We had to present the paper in pdf format by default, hence the problem. Anyways thanks for your interest.
