Why & how it helps me: American with career 50-50 Europe-SiliconValley. New to OSS as CEO building Bacula Systems with the architect & project manager Kern Sibbald (formerly AutoDesk founder and author of much of AutoCAD). This helps me model the ecosystem and the "refinery process" of serving the community while providing professional services and SLA support to commercial users backing up mission critical data. I'm "close" to tying the ecosystem model to our CRM so we can serve the community and build revenue simultaneously. Wish us luck! Thanks for this insightful & helpful comparison.
