Open Source Research · 2004-11-23

A friend of mine, Michelle Aden, recently asked me to write about some aspect of Open Source for a conference on that topic. It occurred to me that research had recently enjoyed becoming part of the Open Source community, so I looked into writing about that.

Here is the resulting paper. It's also available in PDF and Word format.

I should note that considerable editorial help came from Sherrie Bolin, making it a much cleaner read!

  1. Owen, I have only had the tiniest moment to look at the ms, but I have to say that the little I have seen has none of the writing faults that so defigure the writing of us academics. It seems VERY crisp. Whether you follow thorough on the structure you have set up remains to be seen, of course, but it is hard to see how a person could get such a good start and not carry on. So maybe you guys DONT need a writer.
