What a paradox!
Google Doc is neither libre nor open.Please, use okfnpad.org for
collaborative writing.

Thanks Samuel, all good suggestions!
I've linked to a Google Drive doc with a version editable by the
public. Do your worst! (Of course, the ODT from the original message
is also editable by anyone).
Friends: one thing Samuel took issue with was the use of the word
'ransom' to describe a business model where you create a work and then
say you will release it to the public if you receive $X. I agree that
'ransom' is a loaded term. Can people think of a term for it
(preferably one that has been used before) that would describe this
process?

That's a lovely start! You should spend more time clarifying the
difference w/ crowdsourcing and You can probably boil the whole
down to a 1-pg summary at the start. And you might link to a
publicly editable version to facilitate more in-depth
revisions/comments.

Hi folks,
What's the difference between open source and crowdsourcing?
Why does free software cost money?
How can a work be under an open knowledge licence yet not be
open knowledge?
My boss talked about 'open sourcing' suggestions when he meant
'crowdsourcing'. That, and the discussion on the OKFN
discussion list about cleaning up the various free, libre and
open Wikipedia pages inspired me to sit down this afternoon
and write this: /A Free, Libre and Open Glossary/.
It's 14 pages and 5,000 words, but the FLO part is only 2,000
- the rest is the context in which FLO exists/what FLO is not.
I'd love your feedback. I turned off editing because I'd like
a single authorial voice running throughout the document, but
please do send emails and leave comments on the Google Doc:

(Also attached in ODT format for those of you who'd prefer to
avoid Google).
Share it widely, of course.
Cheers,
Chris
