So Jeff Waugh has announced the “Australian Open Source Industry & Community Report” has been published as a PDF1, hopefully the first of many.
Come and see what Open Source really does for Australia!
Our conservative projection of earnings suggests that the Open Source industry generates $500 million in revenue each year, with over 50% of that being directly related to Open Source.
The report is covered by a CC license:
The Australian Open Source Industry & Community Report is published as a freely downloadable PDF on the Census project website and is redistributable under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives license.

I’m sorry to hijack this comment box but i have not seen an email address on your site to report problem.
I just want to tell you that when i want to see the benchmark here http://www.csamuel.org/2008/03/23/btrfs-013-and-xfs-benchmarks
there is a problem because there is a redirection to the main page of your blog.
(sorry for my bad english).

Hi Patrick,
Hmm, it appeared to be an issue with the wp-super-cache plugin, I’ve told it to clean itself up and that link appears to be working again now!
Thanks for the alert!

A new version of wp-super-cache came out, so I’ve just updated to it which will hopefully improve things.
