System

CUWiN Goes Public with Open-Source Mesh
System 02/01/2005 09:12 PM
The Champaign-Urbana Community Wireless Network (CUWiN) released the fruit of their efforts at the end of the week: The project is an open-source effort to provide mesh networking with no center. The system is self configuring among nodes which need no non-volatile or permanent storage. To set up a CUWiN network, you burn a CD with the 0.5.5 software later this week and use it to boot a computer with a support wireless card. The system finds nearby nodes, creates tables, and establishes itself as part of the network. The software is free and open source. The full press release is after the jump....

Meshcube: Open Source Mesh Network Nodes

Meshcube: Open Source Mesh Network Nodes 06/28/2004 09:55 AM

I must presume, when looking at the prices for the 'Meshcube,' that "199,90 EUR" really means about €200, not €20,000, because as cool as a tiny, mesh network computer is, I don't think there's any way I'd pay 20 large for one. Mesh networks are like generic WiFi networks, except that as you continue to add nodes -- like the little Meshcubes, for instance -- the network can expand out, without many of the limitations of traditional wireless networks with repeaters. There are other differences, too, but for now we can just enjoy a cute bug computer with no moving parts, a 400MHz MIPS processor, and two WiFi interfaces all crammed into a 7 x 5 x 7cm cube.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Far away from the usual open source software industry focus on code, freedom, and evangelism, the InnoTech conference and expo held here this week centered on the business of open source for business' sake. Sure there was talk about the advantages of Linux and open source technology, the ability to impact operating system-level functionality, and fighting unwarranted fears of a different model, but the heart of the conference was the beat of business -- cutting costs, driving value, and saving time and grief.

Oh boy, something to write about on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

Thanks Ted - 'cause this is exactly what I've been feeling - that the code (whether it's GPL or whatever) is only part of the equation of software.  Clearly the Moveable Type community is feeling riped off as they could have sworn that they had something to do with the success of Moveable Type.

The ultimate betrayl happens when the folks who control the code - actually think that the code is their intellectual property that gets milked on the proverbial tit of business model - to reap the rewards of life - called profit.

The Moveable Type community ate the red pill and actually expected to Trotts to eat their own dogfood as well.  Well guess what? Everyone has a different difinition of what 'open' is.......

Tim O'Reilly says that Google and Amazon are open source.  Macromedia thinks Flash is open.  Dave Winer thinks RSS 2.0 is open.  Lots of different defintions of the same word.

At the end of the day - it's not just the code that makes up the standard, but the people who use it.  That's a very simple statement, but so so so so so so so so true.

As Ted has learned through his life - and currently at the OSAF, building products, iterating features and refining the software - takes time, energy and dedication.  SixApart knows that only too well, and Joi too - so it was their time to charge and nobody likes that.  Oh well.

No - the code is only PART of the equation of what software is - and it's the company that controls or owns the software - that gets to call the shots. 

That's why Macromedia does the stupid things it does - as it's not controlled by me anymore.  All future moves by Friendster are not being driven by Jonathan Abrams anymore (which actually gives Friendster some hope!)

All this doesn't happen by coincidence - it's actually the state of the art of our software ecosystem.  This is what happens when a bunch of hackers get laid off and have nothing to do.  We change the rules.

So if Matt Mullenweg plays his cards right, he can lead the world of WordPress forward and become the next SixApart - at which point he'll meet the next Joi and eventually will have to charge for WordPress.

It's called technology gravity - driven by money (and the rent and food and health plans.)More times than not - the developer of any open source software expects to make money off of the software - somewhere down the line....

I can guarentee you Mitch Kapor does!

But he's throwing in his $5M bucks and a few years of his time to get Chandler there.  So is Matt Mullenweg.

Here's Ted's post.... more response and inspiration from it - below.

Community owned weblogging tools. I've been trying to figure out what I think about the whole Movable Type situation, since Julie's blog is running on it.

For the record, I think that SixApart should be free to charge money for their product, and to price it as they see fit. That's how business works. SixApart is't a charity, and the rest of us have no business forcing them to be one if they don't want to be one.

Being an open source guy, I figured that the obvious angle to tackle was the open source one. So I thought about blogging, blogging as freedom of expression and what I perceive to be a good match between my personal goals/definition of blogging and open source software development. I read Mark Pilgrim's post about WordPress, and software freedom and open source. But as I thought about it some more, and tried to write a post about it, something didn't quite settle with me. Mark's post talked quite a bit about freedom, not being locked in and so forth, all the usual Free/Open Source stuff. But when I looked at the outcry over MT 3.0, I saw (among other things) that parts of the blogging community felt that their relationship with the Trotts/SixApart had been broken by the new licensing. I had wanted to write about the need for open source blogging software, of which there is plenty. However, I don't think that just being open source will be enough, or that matching or exceeding the feature set of MT 3.0 will be enough. My read on what made MT very special was that a sizable portion of the blogging community loved it, and felt that in some way MT was "their" package. Which of course, isn't true. It was (and is) SixApart's package. But I sensed in the outcry over MT 3.0 a yearning (at least in some parts of the blogging community) for a package that people "could call their own".

I think that some people believe that WordPress is that package, because the GPL will protect them from term changes such as SixApart's. Realistically, I expect to see more packages change terms as the blogging world expands. I don't think that just having a GPL'ed package is enoughl. The developers may still ignore the users. The developers may get tired and walk away. There are all kinds of problems that won't get fixed just because WordPress is under the GPL (or any other open source license). What WordPress (or any other suitable open source contender -- anytime you read WordPress here, insert your favorite open source contender) needs is a community. Normally, (from an Apache perspective) I'd say that WordPress needs to develop/enhance/diversify/grow its community. And that's probably true. But if the blogging community wants to have a blogging package "to call its own", then just switching blogs over to WordPress won't be enough. Folks should roll up their sleeves and get involved. I hear lots of people in the blogosphere talking about community. In real world communities like the Amish communities, when disasters happen, people chip in to help. When a barn burns down, people come together to put up a new one. It seems to me that some people view what happened with MT 3.0 as the blogging community's equivalent of a barn burning down.

So here's the punch line: If you are considering moving your blog to WordPress or some other open source blogging package as a result of what happened this week, don't drop in, switch your blog over, and drop out. Take your time, look around, and see if there's a way that you can help. [Ted Leung on the air]

Marc picks it up here again

So what is Broadband Mechanics gonna do about this?

What is my company doing in this world?

1.  All we want for people using our code - is credit.  We'll simply ask folks who use the PeopleAggregator, PeopleDNS or WebOutliner (or any other open projects we help make happen) to put our logo/emblem on the page and point to us.  It's up to us to make money after that.  But any code we open source - can be used however you want.  Breaking compatibility, forking or whatever is about a stupid as - as - as a young entreprenuer can make it.  That's not obviously what we want to see happen - but you have every right to be as stupud as you want.

2. Moveable Type maintained focus, compatibility and growth by balancing their own instincts with input from the community.  They then choose who they'd be friends with, as they can't possibly be friends with everyone!  Well guess what?  I disagree with that!  I think you CAN be friends with everyone - and you do it with a social network - like Tribe, 1UP.com or Orkut.  THIS is what I mean by applying a social network into a specific context.  What better way of establishing an open community blogging platform - then to build a socal newtork into it?

3.  So I'm gonna pitch Matt Mullenweg not only on supporting a basic FOAFnet import/export capability - but to have the entire PeopleAgrgegator built into WordPress as well.  For free - please take it - enjoy.  Just give us credit.

Group As User: Flaming and the Design of
Social Software

Group As User: Flaming and the Design of
Social Software 12/19/2004 03:53 PM
When we hear the word "software," most of us think of things like Word, Powerpoint, or Photoshop, tools for individual users. These tools treat the computer as a box, a self-contained environment in which the user does things. Much of the current literature and practice of software design -- feature requirements, UI design, usability testing -- targets the individual user, functioning in isolation. And yet, when we poll users about what they actually do with their computers, some form of social interaction always tops the list -- conversation, collaboration, playing games, and so on. The practice of software design is shot through with computer-as-box assumptions, while our actual behavior is closer to computer-as-door, treating the device as an entrance to a social space. We have grown quite adept at designing interfaces and interactions between computers and machines, but our social tools -- the software the users actually use most often -- remain badly misfit to their task. Social interactions are far more complex and unpredictable than human/computer interaction, and that unpredictability defeats classic user-centric design. As a result, tools used daily by tens of millions are either ignored as design challenges, or treated as if the only possible site of improvement is the user-to-tool interface. The design gap between computer-as-box and computer-as-door persists because of a diminished conception of the user. The user of a piece of social software is not just a collection of individuals, but a group. Individual users take on roles that only make sense in groups: leader, follower, peacemaker, process nazi, and so on. There are also behaviors that can only occur in groups, from consensus building to social climbing. And yet, despite these obvious differences between personal and social behaviors, we have very little design practice that treats the group as an entity to be designed for. There is enormous value to be gotten in closing that gap, and it doesn't require complicated new tools. It just requires new ways of looking at old problems. Indeed, much of the most important work in social software has been technically simple but socially complex. - More at http://shirky.com/writings/group_user.html
