:Lockheed Goes Open Source. Blankenhorn Hates It.
Lockheed Goes Open Source. Blankenhorn Hates It.

I think it’s a big deal, not just for Lockheed Martin, but for large corporations who are considering a more open, more innovative approach to software development. And yet, Dana Blankenhorn hates it:

"I don’t see anything in Eureka Streams I can’t do in Drupal, or a number of other high-quality open source projects that have existed for years. Lockheed has reinvented the wheel — why?"
