ABSTRACT:
To have written ‘comprehensively’ on any subject is difficult with or without limits. Similarly, to write comprehensive papers regarding such complex and diverse topics as I have before me, and to limit myself to 20 pages per topic, is certainly a formidable task. Obviously, I have had to make choices on what content I should include, and what I should not. And these choices were never easy. However, I am hoping that these essays will serve as a launching point into describing what I know now, and what I hope to learn in the future.

The state of the open source movement and the activities that arise from it have shifted and continue to shift before me as I write these essays. While these ideas seem to be constantly reshaping, they are no less interesting to me than they were at the beginning of this journey. The open source movement has become more than just a better way of writing software. The open source movement can be seen as a culture, an ideology and a better way for humans to work together on shared pursuits.
