Isn't it the *Cathedral* and the Bazaar? ;) Well, I would venture to add some of Eben Moglen's writings: Anarchism Triumphant: Free Software and the Death of Copyright http://moglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/anarchism.html The dotCommunist Manifesto http://moglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/dcm.html And of course, the Halloween Documents: http://www.opensource.org/halloween/ Even though the original two Halloween documents were written nearly six years ago, it seems that much of Microsoft's actions within those years seems to reflect some of the suggestions made in the memos.
