I enjoy lists and this type of analysis to shorten my curve to finding the thought leaders in new areas of interest. The list is diverse in terms of global leaders. But is open source always just applied to tech and programming?
In past posts, we shared links and interview with Local Motors who is working in an environment of open source, crowdsourcing and cocreating in the automotive space. They are sharing designs, drawings and modifications. I am looking for more companies not in the tech space solely who are part of the Open Source or Open Innovation space.
Can we build a wiki to share? Does a list like this exist?

Thanks Wendy! A very interesting list. I found the distinction between "popular" vs. "influential" to be quite interesting. It is notable that Tim O'Reilly is at the top of the popular list. In addition to other things, his publications group produces Make magazine, which is serving as the Bible for the growing DYI and hacker movement. Check it out: http://makezine.com/
