OpenLogic has launched a free web site called OpenLogic Exchange (OLEX) where enterprise developers can go to find, research and download open source software that carries OpenLogic's seal of approval assuring them it's safe for enterprise use.

The company says searches on Sourceforge return too many choices and warns that standard rating schemes can be vulnerable to "ballot box stuffing." OpenLogic limits your search to established packages that are enterprise-ready.

OpenLogic will sell support and indemnification for the packages.
