Very good points; I'll be writing my Master thesis on the topic of Corporate Social Responsibility / Human Resources and Open Source involvement for IT companies, and these are exactly the things I want to target.

It took me a good amount of time to explain my supervisor who is teaching management courses what is Open Source and how things work there. Even after that, I still think it's not quite clear for her.

The things that managers/purely business people don't get along with the most are the free and collaboration parts, because they are a bit "out of the box" for usual business mindset.

Good read.
