Wow, @gruber is spot on: Open and Shut
Daring Fireball: Open and Shut
This whole argument about "open vs closed" is stupid. It's all about leadership. Open source projects can be great... if they are lead by a strong leadership... and the same goes for the "closed" projects. And very often the "closed" ones win because they have the leadership in place.
Anyway, read Gruber's post. It's a great read.
