Hi folks, Another Saturday, another update. Quite a few entries this time.
If you missed it earlier, there is an RSS feed of new pages on the wiki. You can get it here.<http://www.feedrinse.com/services/rinse/?rinsedurl=dbefeb94b675595652981093a42324c9>There's no way to separate new libre entries from new proprietary entries, unfortunately Wikidot doesn't give us that option. The FOSsil Bank is a wiki that catalogues libre and proprietary shareable works (free culture, Creative Commons, open content, open source, free software, open knowledge, open hardware, etc.).
