time to step back, take a deep breath, and check the pulse of open
source development ahead of what promises to be an interesting -- and
hopefully, very profitable -- 2004.

March
21 entry about upcoming.org turned out to be an odd juxtaposition
because, on the same day, a new events database called
EVDB was announced and shown at PC
Forum. It's due out shortly in public beta but I haven't seen it, so
for now I only know what you can also learn from reading, among
others:
Dan

Om Malik,
David
Weinberger, and
Paul
Kedrosky (whose recent archive is missing this morning, yikes).
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.

Linux and open source opportunities in
the Mideast
01/17/2004 10:45 PMRIYADH, Saudi Arabia -- Computers and the Internet are just starting
to penetrate the Mideast, and since most residents of most countries
here are dirt-poor, Linux and open source are "naturals" for the
region. There is also a fast-growing market for Arabic-language
commercial software (or software services based on open source
applications), and it seems that half of the region's governments have
decided their country should become "the" developer of Arabic-language
software. Saudi Arabia, where I'm writing this, is pouring massive
government funds into an effort to build a software industry. But it's
possible that cultural and political factors may be more important
than government aid in encouraging software development. If this is
so, Saudi Arabia may be wasting its money, and should look at changing
its society instead. Note: This is #5 in a series of five "Dispatches
from Saudi Arabia." You may want to see #1, #2, #3, and #4 before you

advantage of. In addition, it redirects weird URL requests to -it's
own website-."

Open source cracks publishing wide open
06/17/2004 11:24 AMOnce upon a time, publishing was the domain of large corporations.
Then came desktop publishing and the tools to produce a book shrank
from the cost of an aircraft carrier to the price tag of a PT boat.
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.

in the retail arena as well. Having their foothold in a store that
sells software that sells anything but Microsoft products is certainly
a different approach to be sure….
