Presenter: David J Berube (http://www.berubeconsulting.com) Free (as in speech) doesn't mean without profit; you can make money off open source software. Superior quality, open software can provide a huge advantage over commercial software with a hefty license fees, and businesses are beginning to realize that. By using open source software to provide more value to businesses, and charging accordingly, it's possible for open source enthusiasts to make a bundle while still contributing to the open source community.
