Growth Through Imitation
,----[ Quote ]
| We work in a very different environment
| now. Teams and networking are the heart of
| how we live. Sharing ideas and concepts
| which get developed through collaboration
| is a way of life. Open Source software is
| one of the most obvious examples;
| development through imitation and
| refinement for the good of all.

Challenging the Limits of Open Society
,----[ Quote ]
| In that essay, Eric S. Raymond, a software
| programmer, heralded the rise of the Linux
| operating system and the bottom-up, open-
| source, we-the-people world that it
| reflected. He wrote that old-style software
| was âbuilt like cathedrals, carefully
| crafted by individual wizards or small
| bands of mages working in splendid
| isolation.â Open-source pointed to a new
| way: âa great babbling bazaar of differing
| agendas and approaches,â as he put it, âout
| of which a coherent and stable system could
| seemingly emerge only by a succession of
| miracles.â
|
| Mr. Raymondâs immediate subject was
| software, but his essay spoke for the age.
| It was a moment when democracy seemed on
| the march worldwide, when âthe end of
| historyâ had been declared by Francis
| Fukuyama, when new tools called Web logs,
| or blogs, promised to empower the little
| guy. In that moment, as went the open-
| source technology, so went the world.

Open source training more attractive to workers
,----[ Quote ]
| Schools are heeding the call from
| organizations seeking IT personnel skilled
| in open source, but such efforts must
| involve broader industry participation and
| greater integration across the curriculum,
| according to an analyst.
|
| With regard to open source modules, Patrick
| Chan, chief technology advisor for IDC
| Asia-Pacific's emerging technologies
| practice group, said a more concerted
| effort is required on the part of
| institutions to move universities in the
| same direction.
