Sorry, I meant to say "extract value" here, not "extract labour".
But the larger point is that any successful formula heavily reliant on open-source is
going to be a lot more dependent on culture, and on the strengths of individual people and
their specific skills, than a formula reliant on a third-party vendor, all other things
being equal.
