Linus Torvalds, the founder of Linux, explained the appeal of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) best when he declared, "Software is like sex: It's better when it's free." Many enterprises today, the strong majority of which use FOSS, apparently agree. But as a new survey out today reveals, those organizations would also love better enterprise-grade support for FOSS solutions. Is the channel ready to deliver?

Hmm, so, business plan: find a FOSS project which is used by a number of companies, figure out what the major pain points are, bundle the solutions into a product to sell to those companies.
