The pragmatist values having good tools and toys more than he dislikes commercialism, and may use high-quality commercial software without ideological discomfort. Likely tend to be higher-quality, on average, than those that failed to do so.

For years now, the company has performed detailed analyses of most major and many small open source platforms and applications, producing a lot of notable data on how projects are finding audiences, and how reliable various platforms and applications are. A recent round of flaws discovered in open-source software has reignited concerns that security is getting bypassed in the rush to continue expanding the large and extremely popular code base used by millions. Looking from the opposite perspective, merely 1% of projects have 50 or more committers per year, and a scant 0.1% have 200 or more (see the Rev. Brackets, the open source code editor created by Adobe, has just recently implemented the regular weight of Source Code into their project. Downloading flawed open-source code brings with it "issues from a legal perspective," says Rami Sass, CEO of WhiteSource Software, a company that offers open-source lifecycle management software used by vendors What is the quality of the code? Here are some of the details than 300 million lines of code. Java Exceptions And Errors with JDK | Hadoop Start. Code Quality-The Open Source Perspective. Have 5 or fewer committers per year (see the CDF column). By adopting an open source strategy for the code, we hope that cultural heritage organizations around the world will see Arches as a compelling technical and business solution for their data management needs.
