OW2 was in the news this summer, thanks to Marc Sallières of Altic, OW2 Corporate Member and BI Initiative contributor, who reacted on a story by Infoworld. As a result, the north-american online publication ran a story by Tom Kaneshige entitled "Open source: What you should learn from the French". The paper says nice things about OW2 projects and about OW2, including: "Today, France is arguably the most fertile ground for open source development in the world. The well-known and respected OW2 Consortium for open source middleware has its roots there."

Nice. Thank you Marc.
