Raymond"To: lwn@lwn.net, editors@linuxtoday.com, malda@slashdot.org, x@linux.com Subject: A new version of `Homesteading the Noosphere' is available Organization: Eric Conspiracy Secret Labs X-Eric-Conspiracy: There is no conspiracy A new release of the followup paper to ``The Cathedral and the Bazaar'' is available on the writings page at my site. It incorporates substantial new material from quite a number of respondents. This is the version that will appear in the upcoming O'Reilly collection of my essays, unless I hear a good reason to make last-minute corrections within the next few days. So I'd love to see feedback, criticism and corrections -- but get them to me ASAP because the window will close very shortly. -- Eric S. Raymond A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares about more than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. -- John Stuart Mill, writing on the U.S. Civil War in 1862
