It leads with the evil genius story of John Newton who previously founded Documentum, sold it to EMC in 2003 for $1.2B and is now starting an open source content management company - Alfresco - which seeks to undermine old-code companies like Documentum.
In addition to Alfresco InformationWeek covers SugerCRM, MySQL, Greenplum
