| | On the other hand, even very large business may be able to adapt quickly, and even to be early movers, as IBM has sought to do in relation to Linux on servers, and is now considering on desktop and portable machines (Shankland 2004). | | | A useful interpretation of the term 'business model' is therefore that it is the answer to the question 'Who pays what, to whom, and why?' (Clarke 1997, 1999a). | | | Somewhat broader is the notion that a business model describes the logic of the value-creating business system that lies behind the business processes (Petrovic et al. |

| | Open Source as Business Model |
| | The business model around Asterisk, open source PBX software, (http://www.asterisk.org/) is quite interesting. | | | On the business model front, I used to think that organizations like the Media Development Loan Fund/ Center for Advanced Media could create code and distribute software as part of their mission. | | | When you want to develop anything using an open source model, it is critical to develop the “community” strategy at the earliest possible stage. |

| | Another way in which the GPL could be used for business purposes is as a technology "sentinel," with a non-GPL'd version of the same code available for a price. | | | There are companies for whom this is a viable business model--an example is Transvirtual in Berkeley, who are applying this model to a commercial lightweight Java virtual machine and class library project. | | | Each developer has to feel like they are making a positive contribution to the project, that their concerns are being addressed, their comments on architecture and design questions acknowledged and respected, and their code efforts rewarded with integration into the distribution or a really good reason why not. |

| | What is a business model? |
| | Bearing in mind the use of the term "model" in systems theory, and that many of the above articles were from ICT-oriented journals, one might have expected to find a business model defined in systems terms - with inputs, processes, and outputs. | | | This suggests that when a business model is developed, it should be a flexible one, which can be modified easily should financial growth not meet expectations. | | | Another advantage is that it fits well with program logic modelling: in other words, a complex process can be divided into modular stages, and each stage can be assessed separately using whatever means is the most suitable. |

| | The proprietary OS vendors, with their huge investment in the proprietary software that their products consist of, would be crazy to try and match the benefit we are offering their customers, as we generate a fraction of the revenue per user that the current proprietary OS vendors rely on. | | | Of course if our technology model becomes accepted by a large enough group of computer users, the existing OS vendors are going to have to react somehow. | | | The best example I know of to illustrate that the Linux model is a profoundly different approach to building OSes is to look at what many people are convinced is the ultimate outcome of this OS effort, namely that Linux will balkanize the same way all the Unixes have. |
