Hiring...
So, we're getting into gear for hiring, which directed my random reading internet time into hiring techniques. After Paul Graham's Hiring is Obsolete (an over-scandalous title, leading a very good article), I stepped on this "Reduce the risk, hire from open source".
While Paul Graham's article is probably a bit U.S.-centric -- Europe(ans) does not have half the agility creating new companies -- the idea that open-source work can act as the best of imaginable resumés seems flawless. Hiring a OSS author is hiring someone who walks the walk (even if not talking the talk).
