Is Open Source Different In Europe Than In the US?

An anonymous reader writes "The first Europe Open Source Think Tank just concluded and Larry Augustin posted some interesting observations on open source in Europe versus the US. Essentially, he says that users in Europe care more about the open source nature of a product than do US users. US users are just trying to save a buck while European users actually care about access to the source code. Do Slashdot readers observe the same thing? Are the reasons for using open source software different in other parts of the world as well?"

As an Australian, brought up in one of Britain's former colonies, I grew up with a view of Europe as a place of ancient, stable and unchanging institutions, and had been unaware of the recent pace of constitutional and cultural change in contemporary Europe; notably in Scotland with devolution and the establishment of the Scottish Parliament, but more widely throughout Europe itself.

That’s not my department, says Wehrner von Braun”) and all the way through the 1970s, 80s and 90s.
