The Biggest Challenge...
Chris Copolla's blog has a link to an archive of a live discussion with Brad Wheeler on the Chronicle website about the Future of Open Source in Higher Education. My favorite quote is this:
What is the biggest challenge to open source at colleges at this point?
Brad Wheeler: The biggest challenge is not dabbling. Like many things, setting a strategy, executing it well, and extracting value from it is effective. Dabbling in the new (with attendant costs) and still paying for the old just keeps things in a state of flux with unfocused investments and value.
