The Prince and the Golden Egg

The Prince and the Golden Egg

The January/February 2006 edition of Enterprise Open Source Journal has just been posted in an all-digital format (PDF and Flash versions) at www.eosj.com. Page 25 includes my article on open source project fundraising. I am posting the first paragraph of the article now, and will post the entire article when the next issue of EOSJ is released in early April.

Once upon a time, in a castle in a far-away land, lived a prince with a golden egg…

While this may sound like a fairy tale, it’s actually the story of how an open source project was successful in raising funds to advance its efforts. And while I didn’t meet the prince, I did have the good fortune of seeing the golden egg, in person.
