The only type of closed-source I tolerate (barely) is hardware-tied things: 3ware monitoring programs, NVidia drivers, etc. Even then I tend to chose hardware without closed source programs.

But that's just me. There are many others who are content with closed source. BitKeeper is used by kernel developers (and this fact alone was enough to entail rise of new interest to open-source version control systems).

If LaunchPad will generate similar effect - it'll be good thing. I will not use LaunchPad if it's closed source but I think we'll see open-source thing similar in functions... eventually
