Perspective Summary:

In our first major research report on the evolution and adoption of open source software in 2007, Saugatuck made a series of statements and issued several Strategic Planning Positions (SPPs) regarding growth, change, and the future of open source software.

One year on, we find the markets proving most of these as accurate, while a few have changed dramatically, and some new ones have emerged. The pace of evolution and adoption has accelerated beyond expectations resulting in cascading changes throughout markets, offerings, buying behaviors, and the nature of open source software itself.

This Strategic Perspective reviews many of these original assertions and assumptions, and provides an update on where things stand today and where they are likely heading across the planning horizon.
