SDForum Open Source Panel with Jonathan Schwartz and Rod Smith

Next Thursday, January 19, I'm going to be on a panel about open source with Jonathan Schwartz of Sun and Rod Smith of IBM, moderated by John Markoff of the NY Times. The event, sponsored by SDForum, is a brainstorming event about the future of open source, and will be held in Santa Clara. I'm a participant, not the moderator, but I imagine there will be some good opportunity to get some spirited conversation going. I'd love your thoughts on what subjects I should be pressing Jonathan and Rod on. What would you ask them if you were in my place? What do you think of their respective open source strategies?

I would like to know how IBM is dealing with what appears to be a repetition of their past - they gave the desktop OS to Microsoft, they now appear to have given the server OS entirely to Red Hat. What is their open source strategy - just advertising to generate consulting hours??

Do you find the "$100 laptop" project competing for your opensource business?
