Corporate change: Contributing to open source (opensource.com)

Over at opensource.com, Daniel Doubrovkine recounts his experiences in trying to open source some of his company's code. "Armed with a healthy dose of idealism, I went to executive management and proposed we open source the tool. I was hoping for a no-brainer and a quick decision at the division level. To my surprise, it took two years, a vast amount of bureaucracy, and far more effort than I ever anticipated. In this process I learned many valuable lessons that I wanted to share with engineers attempting to open source their first projects."
