Untangle goes Open Source

Matt Asay has done an interview with Bob Walters, CEO of Untangle. It's a great first look at a company which has decided to walk the walk. I have a lot of respect for this, too many companies want the benifits of contribution, discussion, and an ecosystem of support around their products without playing by the rules. Bob has been an innovator since his days at Linuxcare. I present this to you as I think Bob and his company are important innovators. What has not come out in Bob's interview is that he has dilligently explored all the issues of license, he has talked to all the right people. As the CEO, he has done the most complete investigation of the strategy that I have ever seen.
