Today I received a ton of email and IM messages related to LinuxWorld naming me as one of 2008's Top Leaders in Open Source Business.
This is just a quick blog post to say thanks to everyone in the community who has supported me as I’ve worked to make BMC one of the top names in open source. I especially want to thank everyone who let me know that I was named one of 2008's Top Leaders in Open Source Business by LinuxWorld. It’s an honor to be mentioned along side Marten Mickos (CEO, MySQL AB), Andy Astor (CEO, EnterpriseDB), John Roberts (CEO, SugarCRM), Larry Augustin (Private Investor), Jonathan Schwartz (CEO, Sun Microsystems), Matt Asay (VP of Business Development, Alfresco), James Governor, Stephen O'Grady, Michael Coté (Redmonk), and Raven Zachary (Research Director, The 451 Group). Here’s a screenshot and the link to the details for those of you who are interested:
