Sorry.  My semantics are 'open source status'!='open source nature' -- having 
an open source nature includes the developer community's openness.  Many 
projects have open source status -- few have an open source nature.  I should 
have clarified what I meant.

See my letter to Linux Weekly News from a few weeks ago to find out what I 
see in 'open source nature.'
