Re: [Wikimedia-l] Free as in beer

Dear Richard

Free as in beer ..or paid as in PR !!!

This is exactly the sort of PR paid editing for which Wikimedia-UK
(and the UK centric paid editing cabals) are notorious for.[1],[2],[3]

Do you seriously expect the community to believe that promoting a
web-page which starts off with an investment pitch is all innocent and
charitable ?

[Wikimedia-l] Free as in beer

[Richard Symonds]

So...

BrewDog, a Scotland-based "hipster brewery" - for want of a better phrase -
have just "open-sourced" their entire recipe collection.

You can read more at https://www.brewdog.com/lowdown/blog/diy-dog.

It's not entirely clear what "licence" they're using but they say:

*"copy them, tear them to pieces, bastardise them, adapt them, but most of
all, enjoy them. They are well travelled but with plenty of miles still
left on the clock. Just remember to share your brews, and share your
results. Sharing is caring."*

I guess "free as in beer" has a slightly different meaning now!
