Scalix will offer up a good chunk of its next e-mail release to the open source world, the company said Wednesday. Components of Scalix Community Edition will be available under a license modeled on the Mozilla Public License (MPL). That will enable the legal use of third-party code not licensed under the MPL to coexist with commercial code. A commercial license will also be available for the Scalix enterprise product. While this is not the first company to open source a software package, but now we're seeing a market battle centered around Free/Open Source Software
