[oclug] Linux/FLOSS Studies

[M&D Hickson]

The November issue of'First Monday' (a peer-reviewed online journal) has 
several papers which may be of interest to the Open Source community:

"FLOSS At Large: Selected papers from the FLOSS workshop at 4SEASST 
joint conference, Paris, 25-28 August 2004

Free/libre open source software (FLOSS) has emerged as an important 
phenomenon. Seven papers in this special issue examine the FLOSS 
community and how innovation, cooperation, and trust develop in this 
exceedingly diverse group."

The October issue has the following:
Protecting ourselves to death: Canada, copyright, and the Internet
by Laura J. Murray

http://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue9_10/index.html

I'm not trying to start a discussion/thread on these subjects, just 
drawing attention to the papers, and wondering if anyone knows of 
similar sites (i.e. serious, scholarly sites focused on Linux/Open 
source or Internet/WWW studies and which require proper footnoting and 
reference links).

Thanks in advance.
