[CA cert] Bet

[Duane <duane AT cacert.org>]

I have a bet going with a friend of mine over the rationalisation of 
open sourcing... Apart from peer review can anyone bleating for code to 
be open sourced give me a factual benefit in doing so...

So far I've open sourced code on several other projects of mine and not 
only ended up having to deal with end user support that CAcert gets now, 
but developer support as well, in other words the amount of work went up 
supporting those projects not down, and had little or no return of code 
that was actually of any benefit...

But I'm just playing devils advocate here and assuming everyone isn't 
playing the open source card because it's the in thing to do, and that 
they've considered all angles of doing so...
