and Bridges: The Unseen Labor Behind Our Digital
Infrastructure</a>
(PDF) -- <i>The pervasive belief, even among stakeholders
such as
software companies, that open source is well-funded makes it
harder
to generate support. Some infrastructure projects operate
sustainably,
either because they have a working business model or
sponsorship, or
because their required upkeep is limited. An unfamiliar
audience will
also associate open source with enterprise companies like
Red Hat or
Docker and assume the problem has been solved. However,
these
situations are the outliers, not the rule.</i>
