The Promise of Software Libre (Open Source)
Story Posted by Rory on Friday January 11, @ 10:00AM -- Read 2 Times.
from the Let-my-source-code-go! dept.
This week's Library Juice http://libr.org/Juice/
has a relatively long webliography on the Free Software Movement
http://libr.org/Juice/issues/vol5/LJ_5.2.html#9
with brief annotations.
It's less about the software itself and more about the
social/economic implications of the movement.
I think there's a natural match between librarians ("content") and
Free Software proponents (techne) for a way of doing things in the
information age that forms a viable alternative to capitalist
information practices.
