The second part of the presentation is suppose to be about open commercial development, which is suppose to be a new hybrid development model that takes aspects of both the open and proprietary development models to provide a new model for the commercial software development process as defined in the symposium event description but based on what I understand from the talk, open commercial development is not a new development model that is created by IBM. Instead, it is an old development modal that has failed many times based on historic facts. The word, “open” in open commercial development is extremely misleading because open commercial development is not open source. Basically, open commercial development is a transparent development process for which they get user to participate when they are developing new software. In general, they are trying to apply open source technical to development as oppose to what they usually use a “closed” development modal. By applying the open source technical, they are trying to get direct customer involvement into project in order to improve software quality. I find the material and strategy which they have presented to be very similar to the agile development technique and they are trying to make money out of the free direct customer and opening source community input without crediting the contributor.
