    Todays desktops from commercial and open source are all stuck in the legacy, file-app-document world. The tired old, paper inspired, pre-Internet, pre-mobile way of working. PDFs, online silos, 10 different UIs to get simple things done.

    FOSS Communities have little clue of what the next generation user information space will look like. And will likely copy the commercial world again when it all kicks off.
