Competitive pressure isn't just useful for commercial projects, it is also useful for open source projects.

  It's not even uncommon to have projects compete inside a company, like linux vs osx for ios in the early days. And in-house or open source competition is much better than a typical commercial competition because the good parts from all sides can be reused, lessons learned. This is why I am against software patents, too.
