Coverity scan has again published their report about error density.

This time OSS code was in *all* categories better than CSS code (last year 
it was better in all categories with code below 1.000.000 lines).
Tested was NetBSD, FreeBSD, LibreOffice and Linux among other OSS

The result this year was 0.59 per kloc for OSS, 0.72 for CSS

The linux code they scanned ( 8.5 million lines of code) resulted in 0.61 
per kloc

So far for the repeated claims of "hobby ware" made by some dimbulbs

The code quality of OSS software was *better* acrosss the board compared to 
CSS code
