Open Source Everywhere
I have a ton of magazines strewn across my office. Over the last year or so, I've been letting my subscriptions to various magazines lapse because I realize that I no longer read them. But it's hard to let go of some. I still get Wired, although I periodically wonder if I should let it lapse. I pondered that question again when the November issue arrived. But lo and behold, there was a tidbit that made me reconsider again. Thomas Goetz's
Open Source Everywhere was the culprit this time.
I've been involved with open source for a few years now (I used a lot of open source stuff off of Usenet, back before it was called "open source", and before Usenet became a cesspool), and I know that people have rumbled about applying the open source "method" to domains besides software. So it was nice to read an article that actually told about attempts to do this. I'm interested in hearing about other uses of open source principles outside of the software domain. So if you know about them, let me know.
