1. Water IS REALLY wet. But not sure this is smth new.
2. Bullshit
3a. OSS is NOT people, process and software. Author is unaware of what OSS is, which is a very comfortable point of view.
3b. No IT and no IT budget and no IT understanding = a) strings of people connecting SW modules and b) Soloninkin's Syndrome - DO NOT TOUCH MY DATA! Here, some soft therapy would be useful, say a carrot and stick methode.
4. Bullshit.
5. Open Your Eyes... (+Chorus: Always I wanna be with you, etc...)
6. Bullshit except art and science. BUT. Any good thing is art not science. Probably the author tries to talk about internal engineering templates which are generally not shown to amateurs and unauthorized ones.
7. Water IS REALLY wet. But not sure this is smth new. See also: 1
8a. OSS effectiveness is not defined poorly as staff reduction. Author is unaware (see 3a).
8b. OSS can poorly work in an uneffective IT environment. At least good DB, J2EE, SOAP understanding, and event logging expected. A perfectly working service desk is also a must. "Termination": author is also unaware of project planning.
9. Yes, you cannot use OSS, if you cannot use OSS (see 8b). There's nothing to do, anyway :-( Just sit down and cry...
10. Yes, the CEOs are often unaware of things, but it is not related to the OSS scope.
