What makes this article interesting isn't the article itself, which is the usual confused argument that "we need to be proprietary to give open source value" guff, but Michael Tiemann's responses in the comments, which are themselves worthy of comment, as they tell the story that an "open source" company works because it is open source, not because it calls itself open source.

Actually, Alex Hudson nails it here. Discovered this since my previous comment.
