Musings on Linux and Open Source by an Accidental Revolutionary.
Open source is the biggest thing to hit the computer industry since the Internet. With RedHat's stunning IPO and other Linux IPOs to follow, even people outside the computer industry have now heard of Linux and open source software. This book contains the essays, originally published online, that led to Netscape's decision to release their browser as an open source; put Linus Torvalds on the cover of 'Forbes Magazine'; and helped Linux challenge the world of commercial software.
These essays appear in print for the first time and have been expanded and revised for this edition. Representing the 'Declaration Of Independence' of the Linux and open source movements, these essays will make a great "hacker holiday gift book".
