I would suggest that if you quote from an article you use the bit that actually tells the reader what the article is about, like this one:

"Four years ago, Max Baker at the University of California, Santa Cruz, needed an easy-to-use tool that would assist in managing switch ports, show port usage and history, track inventory, and help with network debugging. Baker began developing what has become Netdisco, an awesome open source network discovery tool."

Now I just read that it uses a bunch of open source packages but I had no idea whatsoever what Netdisco was.
