[Air-l] Demos and open source

The influential "think tank" Demos has produced a new paper on open source.

http://www.demos.co.uk/catalogue/wideopen/

Well the main point they are making is that the concept of open source is a
very powerful one and can be extended to other realms outside operating
systems and programs. They are very interested in an "open" approach to
government.

This is amusing in a way because Demos is linked with the government in the
UK which is not open at all, except this week when it seems to be "leaking"
like a sieve over the lies they told about the bloody Iraq war.

The paper however has its merits.
