Bob Young, founder of Red Hat &Lulu, on collaboration, innovation

"Bob Young knows about open source and innovation. He's co-founder and former CEO of Red Hat. Founder and CEO of Lulu. Co-founder of the Center for the Public Domain. Much of his life's endeavors have been built on innovation through collaboration.

Earlier this year I saw that he was giving a talk titled, appropriately enough, "Collaborative Innovation" on the lessons he's learned from open source and community building. I asked if he'd bring those lessons to the opensource.com audience as well, and rather than edit down the stories he shared with me, I'd like to give them all to you in his words.
