Yeah, it's like open sourcing code for 3D immersive visualisation of deep-water seismic survey data, along with the detailed blueprints for the ROV and survey equipment. Awesome enough, sure, but pretty much useless to me. I can build the software like a boss on my laptop, but since I don't have access to any seismic survey data, a CAVE room to view it in, an oceanographic survey vessel, ROV and associated equipment, etc. that's as good as it gets. And, if I had all that awesome oil industry exploration stuff, I'd probably also have a team of engineers building me software anyway, so I don't need it.

My point? Open sourcing stuff with ridiculously huge capital requirements is not that useful, I guess?
