This capsule is dedicated to publishing texts, books, whatever. Just because we can, It will be free and open but curated by me ~sufbo / ~etacsufbo
Please go to our main capsule, to address links and contact there.
I will also seek out open source books on gemini and publishing related matters to include.
Sharing. Collaboration. Community. Open access to knowledge. The right
to build on others' work. Values like these are pillars of open source
software development.
And they inform the mission of libraries all over the world.
Libraries embody the open source way—perhaps more than any other
cultural institution today. They're bastions of it. Stewards for it. As
spaces for learning, they champion the open distribution and free
circulation of knowledge. As sites for community gatherings, they foster
collaborative endeavors—fruitful exchanges of resources *and* ideas. And
as symbols of both preservation and innovation, they represent one of
our greatest resources for weathering the turbulence of an ongoing
transition to the 21st century.
In April 2014, Opensource.com invited open-minded bibliophiles to share
stories about the powerful ways open source thinking reverberates
through libraries. D
The O'Reilly Open Source Convention—or OSCON, as it's popularly known—is one of the world's premier open source events. For more than a decade, open-minded developers, innovators, and business people have gathered for this weeklong event, which explores cutting edge developments in the open source ecosystem. And 2014 was no exception.
Eagerly awaiting another year of open source wonders, the Opensource.com community caught up with a handful of notable OSCON speakers to gather behind-the-scenes stories about their passions for open source. This book collects the interviews we conducted.
Open always Wins, Michael Tiemann
Michael Tiemann is Vice President of Open Source Affairs at Red Hat and former President of the Open Source Initiative. He has written many articles for Opensource.com speaking to the power of the open source way, and part of his process has been to highlight the great ideas of others.
From his introduction:
Linus Pauling famously said “The best way to have a great idea is to have lots of ideas.” This is easier said than done, for many reasons. For me, the foremost reason is that nobody wants to be known for having a dumb idea, so we self-edit. If we self-edit too much, we end up having not a lot of ideas, so having a great idea becomes nearly impossible.
A second challenge is creating a space where ideas can combine, coalesce, catalyze, evolve, and, if they are truly great ideas, crystalize. Is that best space an isolated office where the mind of a lone genius can evaluate all and choose correctly the One Best Idea? Or is it better to open up the process to a diverse set of perspectives, up to and including every possible stakeholder in the outcome?
