Open Source Book a Collective Effort

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the smithing-of-words dept.

Hairy1 writes "The New Zealand Open Source Society has begun a project to write a book to put the case for open source use in business and government. There is a need for a book which clearly puts the case for using open source, and provides a clear migration plan. Already five authors and several reviewers have stepped forward to commit time to writing the book. However, other authors and reviewers would be welcome to join the project."

    An open-source book on open source... that reminds me of Kramer's Coffee Table book about coffee tables.
