Open source Java debate rages. "Whether Sun itself releases an
open source implementation of J2SE, however, is not particularly
important, because the release of Tiger will open the door for open
source implementations of the platform, in much the same way that the
release of J2EE 1.4 let projects like JBoss become certified." A clue
appears! Now will they follow up on it?

because, on the same day, a new events database called
EVDB was announced and shown at PC

for now I only know what you can also learn from reading, among
others:
Dan

Om Malik,

The consensus seems to be that EVDB will be a Web-2.0-style,

promising! I'll certainly check it out when it's public.

terms of the Common Public License, which allows modification,
addition, redistribution - in short, it allows most of the rights and
privileges that we associate with open source software.

Open Development Internally: "Following on the success of its
Eclipse open-source development platform, IBM has quietly been using a
form of open-source development internally to create technology the
company will sell commercially.
IBM calls its model Community Source, which it defines as a
collaborative, internal, open-source-style environment for developing
and testing new technology.
Danny Sabbah, vice president of strategy and technology for the IBM
Software Group, in Armonk, N.Y., said IBM is using its Community
Source model across 100 projects and 2,000 developers in the company.
These projects span the IBM Software Group, Systems Group, Research
and Global Services, he said."
Very interesting. I'd like to learn more about that. What parts of the
so called open source development process have they built into the
Community Source model? I've found that most developers have different
definitions of the open source development process (via
Ross
Gardler).

Nature Open Access Debate
Nature Open Access Debate
04/09/2004 03:54 PMNature is hosting a debate on open
access science publishing. At the center of the debate are Public Library of Science and BioMed Central, two open
access journal publishers using the Creative Commons
Attribution License. The PLoS evidence
paper presents a good summary of what is wrong with the current
scholarly publishing model, why open access is important, and an open
access business model.
Even as the much needed debate on open access journals heats up, it
is just one part of a bigger picture where science, creativity, law,
and society collide. Perhaps with this in mind, note the recent post on this
weblog concerning the launch of the Science
Commons exloratory phase.

When Open Source doesn't open and source

When Open Source doesn't open and source
doesn't matter
07/20/2004 11:14 AMOne frustration too many: time for a rant. When a bug in Mozilla
(keyboard focus is on the previously selected window) has remained
unfixed for at least 18 to 24 months, when XFree86 mouse interaction
with PS/2 or GPM remains hazardous and makes a system unusable and
that bug has been fobbed off to the kernel developers and not dealt
with for at least two years - when there are more examples like this
that make using Open Source software a pain, what do you do?
Are you one of the few people with the time and money and
expertise sufficient to delve into the source yourself to fix the
problem?
Do we have it "too good" and these niggles are, by comparison to
the rest of the world's computer users (Windows), absolute peanuts?

Then came desktop publishing and the tools to produce a book shrank

Now, small publishers on the bleeding edge of technology are fomenting
a revolution that may change the publishing market forever. Open
source publishing tools, long derided as not being ready for battle,
are proving themselves in the trenches of small publishing.
