Hi Rob, I wonder if you would care to expand on what Raymond is ignorant of regarding building cathedrals and operating bazaars, and why the "Cathedral and Bazaar" allegory wrt free software is by implication flawed. Having only bought things in Bazaars, and only visited a few Cathedrals my ignorance in this area is quite broad. -- Regards, Mark Preston
