Slashdot Mirror


ESR chapter of "Open Sources" online

Paul Crowley writes "The table of contents for "Open Sources" , O'Reilly's book for the lay reader from Slashdot's interesting-ideas department, is now available and the book itself should be coming out later this month; I've just now received mail warning me of a copy coming my way sometime this week. One chapter is already available online: Eric S Raymond's A brief history of Hackerdom . So you can all start flaming his attention-seeking ways again now, especially since on a related note he's also turned up on Slashdot's favourite news source, BBC News." I just got a copy of Open Sources as well- Chris DiBona mentioned both me & Slashdot in his intro. I've read the ESR and RMS sections already- both were great. A full fledged review of the book will be here whenever I have time to finish reading it.
