    "Dear floss4life,

    Our developers have encountered an issue while using the open source framework you published on github. We have lost as many as 400 user accounts. The estimated cost of this error is $6800.

    This is unacceptable. Be a professional and fix it immediately.

    Chad Elkowitz, MBA, Gruvbert and sons Finance Lt"

        And it’s also why many companies refuse to use open software. It baffles me that no insurance company saw this as a market opportunity to sell open source software insurance.
