Community, Linux, 'free software', open source software development: how do all these fit together, what is this exciting fizz doing to our ways of working, thinking, learning? If we view it as a system, what about it is enabling such robust communitybuilding, challenging of the corporate behemoth, unleashing of collective creativity? This is an invitation into conversation to both people who know little or nothing about this powerful and exciting development and to participants in the 'open source' or 'free software' community. Books: Embracing Insanity: Open source Software Development by Russell Pavlicek The first chapter is a great introduction for people new to the phenomenon. See Jean for access to this. Commonspace: Beyond Virtual Community - Seize the Power of the Collective by Mark Surnam & Darren Wershler-Henry </snip> Ref: http://www.nexuscomputerbooks.com/VPTSalons.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
