Today's focus: Open source licensing: BSD vs. GPL

By Jeff Caruso

Open source licensing: BSD vs. GPL

Which open source licensing model is better - BSD or GPL? Our
experts debate in this week's Face-off. Covalent Technologies
CEO Mark Brewer argues for BSD, while Matt Asay, director of
Novell's Linux Business Office, makes the case for GPL.
Brewer: BSD is a better model

Asay: GPL is better

Open source behavior - good and bad

Meanwhile, Mark Gibbs differentiates between "good" open source
behaviors and "bad" ones. Can you tell the difference?

Why you might need to be fired...

"Operations managers who don't encrypt data in transit should be
fired," says Joel Snyder in this week's Bottom Line. It's that
simple - yet so many companies let data move from Point A to
Point B with no encryption in place whatsoever.

....And why you'll find it tough to get hired

Linda Musthaler this week looks at the outlook for IT careers in
the U.S. in 2005, and it's not a pretty picture.
