Name some software that, has been released in the last 10 years, that is both successful AND 100% open source.

Please do not name anything that started as open source, and than went closed development !

Simply put, closed development has produced a LOT more useful software in *MODERN* times than open source. ( unless you wish to talk about Firefox's core code being used as the backbone of the TOR network ).

Not specifically 10 years, but: Wordpress, GIMP, Audacity, Pidgin, Notepad++, Blender, TrueCrypt, CMake just to name a few.
Not mentioning the plethora of smaller programs in the linux sysadmin world.
But feel free to change the meaning of 'successful' :p

I also read "GUN" as "GNU" the first time.

I totally agree, with all the souls I purchased from republicans.

In addition, I only use free range software, because caged software causes autism. I have registered all of my gluten-free children in gluten-free schools.

I think if we are to achieve perfect productivity, we must remove all of this Jerry Seinfeld propaganda from all of the debuggers.



Something something global warming.

Johnny McCarthy says that security updates will give my LISP machine autism, so I'm going to run all my software unpatched. There's no way that my unpatched software can hurt anybody else, it's my decision.

Interestingly, none of these are GPL as far as I can see.

Ah ha! So if it's Open Source but not GPL then the likelihood for success is much higher. Interesting. GPL == Failure || GPL == Return 1;
