The Open Source model and by Open Source we mean products that adhere to the Open Source Initiative (OSI) guidelines doesn't, and may never, work for many important software domains. All religious fervor aside, this is a reality because customers say so. We may want it to be otherwise, but the ultimate arbiters in the Open Source versus proprietary debate are customers.
