the algorithm of closed source
publishing

As Ed Felten reported< /a> last week, the Journal of Algorithm's Editorial Board has quit en masse. Elsevier had raised its annual subscription price to a point the board thought prohibitive to the journal's mission, and the board thus resigned. This is another sign of the logic of the future of scientific publishing. Open access publishing (see, e.g., PLoS) makes expensive closed source publishing less and less acceptable. Not -- as many seem to think -- because there's anything evil about publishers. Or about publishers making money. But because there is something evil about locking up knowledge unnecessarily. If there is another way to publish that doesn't result in knowledge being limited to the few, then science at least ought to pursue it.

IBM Adopts 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).

Sun Microsystems inched closer to a full open source release of Java code Wednesday but, to the surprise of no one, stopped just short of such a landmark deal. Ultimately what transpired -- as explained to media members and analysts via conference call -- was that the Santa Clara, Calif.-based hardware and software company has merely fine-tuned its stance on Java licensing and is finishing up a trio of new, simplified licenses as evidence of its intent to simplify the legalities of enterprise application development.

Open source cracks publishing wide open


Open source cracks publishing wide open 06/17/2004 11:24 AM
Once 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.

TrendIQ Social Networking "Internet Presence"

TrendIQ has been measuring "internet presence" of the Social Networking meme over at Social-all, which I mentioned recently.

Looks like LinkedIn has been getting a lot of buzz, recently. [Get Real]

Yes - LinkedIn certainly has been getting attention. It's probably becuase people are getting JOBS!

The other thing about LinkedIn - is that it appears it's gonan remain closed.  No FOAF for Hoffman.

Now if I was Joi ito - I'd be pressuring my good friend Reid to change that.  Oh well.
