day5done (some folks believe that he is Wallace) commented: ------ It appears Dr. Välimäki is as objective and unbiased in Europe as Eben Moglen is in the United States. Ever see anyone author and sell a book on open source licensing that didn't fervently believe in the self-promoting assumptions surrounding open source software? "Order a print copy from Amazon or directly from us by filling in an order form or emailing your name, address and the number of copies wanted. We will process the order within 48 hrs and send the book with payment instructions. Direct order is preferred for European customers. The price of one copy is 39 EUR plus shipping charges (5 EUR for one copy to Europe)." http://pub.turre.com/ bio: "Mikko Välimäki, LL.M., Ph.D, is a research fellow at Swedish School of Economics and Business Administration, Helsinki. He also teaches technology and intellectual property law at the Helsinki University of Technology. Mr. Välimäki has consulted especially software companies and is the author of a book on open source licensing (available at http://pub.turre.com/). Previously, Mr. Välimäki has been a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley. He is a co-founder and former chairman of Electronic Frontier Finland." The "open source community" and its proponents are one giant, homogeneous, self-promoting hairball. ------ The book is also available as a pdf download. http://pub.turre.com/openbook_valimaki.pdf regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ Gnu-misc-discuss mailing list Gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
