Vagmim,
Great analysis.
Opensource is all great, but still I hope you do acknowledge
the fact that big names like M$, Oracle, Sun (well.. now Oracle)
dominate the space as well. So certification is a value-addition
in some sense.
Forgive me but I do not understand what you are saying here.
What has the talk about certifications got anything to do with whether Open
Source is great or whether M$, Oracle, Sun etc dominate ?
If I understood Vagmi correctly, the post was about the huge disconnect between
the certification 'industry' and the problem of ascertaining whether a person is
capable of carrying out any useful 'real world' tasks related to the certification.
Not that I agree that certification has it's value[1], but I fail to understand
the connection you are trying to make.
cheers,

[1] more on that if I have the time and inclination to organize and write down
my thoughts
