Why You Should Include Open Source Work in Your Portfolio
Very recently, one of our product architects posted a job opening on our site to find an additional engineer to add to our growing team (in a remote provider capacity). He received inquiries from a number of interested freelance provider candidates and then proceeded to interview to find the top provider for the team. Once he had narrowed the list down to just a few freelance provider candidates, he researched their work history in more detail, finally selecting a particular candidate in India largely based on an example of his work. What it ultimately came down for my co-worker in his freelance selection process was reviewing prior work on open-source projects. Why should you care about open-source work?

More specifically, the concept of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) as a viable solution was introduced.

The Importance Of Software OWNERSHIP
When discussing free vs. proprietary software or open vs. closed source there is a third option that is often not mentioned but which may be the only way ahead for our business in the long term.
