Charlie Rose interviews Apotheker and McAfee
January 8th, 2009
Especially Apotheker’s comments about open source will raise a few eyebrows in the community, namely his argument that SDN members want SAP to host and look after their open source developments. Reason for this is, in his view, “the mission critical stuff.” and “Who do you call if it doesn’t work?”.
In this context, Andrew McAfee of Harvard Business School hit it on the nail here by answering Rose’s question “is everything going to be Open Source software?” with “No, but we don’t exactly know where that boundary is.”. Does SAP ?
