Mavericks at Work and Open Source

Am reading the book Mavericks at Work, a book on how innovative companies are creating businesses that break the mould and are creating value. Was surprised (pleasantly!) to see a whole chapter on open source. The chapter talks of how a giant company like Procter and Gamble is applying open source principles to open itself to innovations from across the world. If anyone needs proof that open source is becoming mainstram, this is it!
