- Open source content moves forward
- Right now I'm enjoying a sort of open source novel.1634: The Ram Rebellion has a standard, proprietary license on it. But it was produced through an open source process, a Web site where fans of Eric Flint's novel 1632 expand on the alternate history universe he created.Many popular books have fan...

- Blindly applying proprietary metrics to open source
- I am constantly amused at how people try to apply the metrics of proprietary software to open source.This can even happen within open source companies, as when Roy Russo of JBOSS writes on his blog that open source inherently leads to monopoly.In fact every business model leads to monopoly, or something...

- Are Microsoft-funded studies worthless?
- Our own Mary Jo Foley expresses skepticism today over a Microsoft-funded study which says European schools prefer Windows to open source.Skepticism is warranted. Cynicism is not.A personal disclosure. Some years ago I worked for a market research outfit which was in turn employed by Microsoft.The company has since gone out...

- Proof of open source incline at SixApart
- I happen to think SixApart's decision to make Movable Type 4 open source, under the GPL, is big news.Once again, you have a major vendor being pushed down the open source incline, toward the GPL, by pressure from the marketplace. In this case, from WordPress.WordPress is already open source. Some full...

- Consensus need not lead to monopoly
- Markets tend to evolve naturally toward monopoly or something much like it.Does a consensus process need to do that? Not necessarily.I take as my example a tool on this very page -- RSS.RSS lets you subscribe to blog feeds like this one, and enjoy may feeds quickly in a newsreader...

- Will the last top developer out of Novell please turn off the lights?
- Since its Earth-shaking agreement with Microsoft six months ago, Novell has quietly gone from being a development outfit to being a marketing outfit. On the marketing front, a pact with Dell is just the latest bit of good news.On the development front there is hardly any good news. Robert...

- Open source values and the Digg dispute
- The t-shirt shown here was first put on sale in the year 2000. It displays the decryption key called DeCSS, and was created after an incident identical to the one which now has Digg in legal hot water. What were talking about, again, is a conflict between the law...

- End of the gotcha clause?
- Ever since launching this blog Ive written stories about "gotcha" clauses.These are additions to standard contracts, usually meant to confer some commercial advantage to the provider.It turns out Don Imus had a "gotcha" clause in his contract with CBS. Of course, this was language in an employment contract, not a...

- Content and software have metrics in common
- This blog has some things in common with every open source business out there. (This happy scrivener works at Chang Ruthenberg & Long, employee benefits lawyers.)Metrics.

- The first political victory for open source

- Jobs' DRM gambit and the americanization of open source
- This week the U.S. Senate is debating whether to debate Iraq. For me the debate over the debate is more intriguing than the actual debate might be. Its extemporaneous, sometimes heated, and often relevant to the question at hand. Steve Jobs has opened up a similar debate about the debate...

- An army of lawyer ants face GPL Version 3 decision
- The folks at eWeek report that Sun will release OpenSolaris under GPL v. 3 when that license becomes final, probably some time this spring. The current version of the draft is dated September, and runs to about 4,400 words, as against 2,500 for the current Version 2 license, which came...

- Open source issues for 2007 start with the profit motive
- One of the big issues here in 2007 will continue to be the divide over profit as prime motivation.We are used to this in software. The very term open source is meant to differentiate those who care first about profit from the Free and Open Source FOSS crowd, like Richard...

- Reputation vs. marketing in open source
- One of the big stories for 2007 is going to be the battle between marketing and reputation. (This guy is pure marketing, and thus has no role in what follows.)Traditionally open source gets by on reputation. Your credibility, your openness, your commitment to open source values, help determine your standing...

- Sucking the air from the room
- One obvious impact of the recent moves by Microsoft, Oracle and Novell has been to put all other open source news in the shade, to literally suck all the air out of the room.A lot has been happening. Just this week Qlusters announced openQRM plug-ins for Dell, Intel and HP...

- Folks who know me say Im a little silly in my attachment to Rice University, from which I graduated in 1977. Guilty as charged.But the old school is doing some grand things, and one is smack in the middle of open source. Its Connexxions, an open source publishing platform first...
