Actualy I have to agree with the orgininal poster. Cisco wouldn't be what it is today if it's IOS was opensource. They took a risk keeping there IOS closed in that it would help them out leverage the competitors on software technology. It paid off till now. They (and we) can only hope that they had some very very extensive code reviews behind those closed doors (for some reason I doubt this). That's the gamble they took, we'll have to wait and see if the lost in the long run.
