Today I’m joined by Fred Mendonça of OpenCFD to chat about the challenges of running a business where the primary offering, OpenFOAM®, is open-source & freely-available. We dig into:
- where/how/if being open-source can have an impact on a code’s value proposition;
- why fostering a community – and opening up channels to allow that community to make useful contributions – are some of the largest & most important challenges Fred faces with OpenFOAM;
- why the success of their Windows release of OpenFOAM was both a no-brainer & a surprise;
- what a classical Greek story about a feather has to do with the future of OpenFOAM.
