For something like an SCM this is a big deal, and not just for the Open 
Source world.  In a company, it means not having to worry about having 
enough licenses, and getting budget approval, etc, etc, before a new 
person can join a project.  Perhaps more importantly, it allows someone 
who normally isn't *on* the project to look at it and participate.
