@rjacksix The corporate scene is littered with failed attempts at "cashing in" on open source. Organizational initiatives and decisions may need to come from the top, but only if they've done their homework and have a good base on the ground floor and in the wider community. Your two examples - Google and IBM - are HUGE contributors to open source... and I'll bet their geeky rank and file didn't need much convincing.
