I heard the same thing.  I was a bit in WTF mode waiting for him to say something off target with ESR's essay or negative about the movement but it was actually very positive.  I'm not sure anyone else understood what he was talking about but it was a cool moment for OSS :-).

Alex Costellanos, a talking head on CNN this election cycle with the
title of Republican Strategist just complemented Obama's speech on the
concept of bottom up and made a direct comparison to the ESR essay 'The
Cathedral and the Bazaar' and representing the change of philosophy from

I kid you not...I almost fell out of my chair.
