Well, while not being a lecture, there's my essay "Open Source, Free Software and Other Beasts": http://www.shlomifish.org/philosophy/foss-other-beasts/ The license that is written there is the Open Publication License version 2.0 or greater, but I can also relicense it under the Creative Commons Attribution license version 2.5 or greater. Another good introduction is: http://www.lita.org/ala/lita/litapublications/ital/2101bretthauer.htm Regards, Shlomi Fish --------------------------------------------------------------------- Shlomi Fish [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.shlomifish.org/ 95% of the programmers consider 95% of the code they did not write, in the bottom 5%. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
