It’s Official: Hyperic = Open Source World Domination

Almost a week late but for those of you who were curious about our Wii challenge…

Last week, some of the best and brightest open source companies in the bay area congregated at Hyperic Headquarters, and played a spirited game of Wii Tennis to vie for the title of Open Source Champion and its prize: The Golden Racket.

The title gives it away, Hyperic won. Specifically, Scott Feldstein (aka scottmf) rose to the occasion and took the prize:

It was a great event though – and although winning was nice, it was made even nicer by getting to blow off some steam and socialize with the other companies that came. Thanks to JasperSoft, MuleSource, Marketcetera (apparently hosting next time!) and MySQL for making the event so fun. Here are some photos for your enjoyment:

We used our new, unbuilt space to host the event. Part housewarming, part wii-fest!

Zack Urlocker from MySQL had the great idea of adding Guitar Hero to the mix. So much fun!

That’s me on the guitar. Let’s just say I’ve had a little practice…

This is actually Scott playing (left) tennis. Although this was taken earlier in the night, we can see Scott was well on his way to his winning streak.

Thanks again to everyone for coming to such a fun night. I look forward to the next round of defending the Golden Racket!
