I am not so sure about that -

In my experience the things that those guys use to decide on products
are :

1) reference sites
2) official support

(and they like to pay for a product 'cause they are used to doing
it...but lets not go there...)

Personally I find the lack of "business-speak" things (like mission
statements) refeshing, and I see it as part of the "values" that
differentiate open source / community based products from commercial
ones. 

just my NZ4c (=US2c)
