The natural complement to
W3C specifications is running code.
Implementation and testing is an essential part of specification
development and releasing the code promotes exchange of ideas in the
developer community. All W3C software is
Open Source /
Free Software,
and
GPL
compatible. See the
lice
nse for details (and the following if you intend
to contribute). Note that as this license is GPL compatible,
it is possible to redistribute software based on W3C sources under a
GPL license.

12/31/2003 01:11 PMRather than try to make the usual sweeping predictions about what the
future holds for the computer hardware and software industries or even
just for Linux and open source, I'm going to make some predictions
about how tech news will be covered in the next year. Let's start by
saying a minimum of 5000 articles (give or take 4900) will be written
in 2004 declaring Linux "finally ready for the desktop," up from 3000
(give or take 2900) similar articles in 2003.

11/01/2003 05:18 AMAs an occasional user of Linux, and someone in the software industry,
I've followed the "Open Source" movement for quite some time. To a
minority, Open Source Software (specifically GPL licensed Open Source
Software) represents an ideological and sociological movement,
something that will change the world. To the majority, it is simply a
way to get cool and useful software without going through the expense
of buying, or the hassle of pirating it.

Larry Augustimn said. He's identified specific models and shown
how companies are asking their clients to pay them to convince them to
hire them.
That is so beautiful.
And watch Doc's IT Garage
for more goings on in this area. It's time to cash in and kick

04/10/2005 07:12 AMFree software and Open Source: The freedom Debate and Its
Consequences By Mathias Klanght
tp://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue10_3/klang/index.htmlAbstract:To most outsiders the ethics
of software is not something usually considered. To most proficient
computer users with a passing interest in this question the ethics of
software is recognised as one of the fundamental questions in the
digital rights area. To most of the latter, terms such as free
software, open source, and their derivatives (FLOSS, FOSS, Software
Freedom) are interchangeable. Choosing one over the other is a matter
of taste rather than politics. However, to most insiders the
question is not one of taste. There is a fundamental difference
between the two areas even if they share a similar root. Free software
is not the same as open source. The two groups differ in their
fundamental philosophical approach to software and its importance to
society as a whole. This paper examines the two groups’ differing
philosophies and explores how their actions have affected software
development, access to fundamental software infrastructure, and the
development of the concept of freedom.

among members of the general public, journalists of the general press
and even among those of us who should know better.

01/06/2004 01:05 PMJ.T. Smith, founder and CEO of Illinois-based Plain Black Software,
didn't originally plan to work full-time on WebGUI, a user-friendly
Web content management system (CMS) he first released in 2001. Since
then, J.T. has built a profitable business selling WebGUI
documentation, training, and consulting. This article is the
lightly-edited transcript of an IRC conversation J.T. and I had on 5
January 2004. J.T. is as open as WebGUI's source code about how and
why his company is profitable, which makes this article "required
reading" for anyone who's ever thought about building a company based
on open source software.

A model for open source software

05/25/2004 11:36 AMCritics of open source software have argued that, from an economic
standpoint, "giving the product away" makes no sense. As a new
business model, open source has been the victim of many misconceptions
and mischaracterizations: that it's the equivalent of communism,
that's it's like a virus, and that it's economically dangerous to
society, for example. In such a hostile atmosphere, it's not easy to
objectively assess a new paradigm that differs greatly from the status
quo. However, though a comparable model may not exist in the IT
sector, a parallel working model for open source already exists in at
least one other field, biomedical research, and this model has been
proven to be of great benefit to society.
