  75
  76 <p> This is the New York Times article that put Open Source on the
  77 radar of IBM CEO Lou Gerstner.  He called around, found that IBM
  78 had no open source strategy, and tasked people to come up with one.
  79 And the rest is history.  </p>

  98 <p> This is the first article that recognizes Postfix (Secure Mailer)
  99 as the project that accelerated IBM's Open Source strategy.
 100 Unfortunately, the text contains factual errors. In particular,
 101 Postfix development started after I came to IBM, not before.  </p>

 111 IBM of open-source software.". The article makes no direct reference
