[Linux-aus] "Free Software is in Decline"

[paulparker]

As a NON-technical person I do not see linux in decline, rather
expected growth is not accelerating.

Linux not yet educating enough in business how linux can replace more
expensive MS-W software businesses use. 


Business is not so adventurous. 

Business groups use particular software, apparently dependent upon MS
-W, [eg Accountants, Doctors, General Store, Pharmacy, Semi-Government]
challenge is to show incorrect the perceptions only MS-W software will
work for them.


Show linux can run same/equivalent service programs needed by business
groups, without loss. 

To win business across, depends on sector by sector having usable
sofware, for clean switch.
