I don't think you have to look too hard at history (anyone's or any country's) 
to
realize that usually, motivation is the complete opposite of the above statement

But I do agree with you that phpgw will succeed despite it's faults although 
you and
I may disagree on what those specific faults may be since that list tends to be
influenced by the observer's intended application of the package.

I think that sums up open source projects in general .. they are not faultless, 
but
they have different faults than the alternatives.  The user can decide what 
solution
best meets their needs.

Please let's not turn this into a pro/con discussion of closed source vs open
source.  If I've learned anything in life, it is that people that get involved 
in
these "open" discussions rarely have little intention to change their own views 
..
which makes any discussion moot.
