Dear all,

I'm currently designing a research proposal for studying the emergence of
open source movement in several region in Indonesia as an entry point in
understanding the diverse fragment of mode of productions (in a marx
approach). I'm focusing in the changing meaning of ownerships in the
intangible commodities such as open source software. Is there any
suggestions for me in choosing what kind of methodology (i'm planning an
ethnography approach to studying this issues)? was there any persons who
have been researching this kind of project?  Is there any Institutions that
i could find some grant that related with this issues.


Thanks
