Admittedly, Wired articles tend to be a little breathless, but a story about
Linux and Tropicalia, where the Electronic Frontier Foundation talks with
Gilberto Gil about open sourcing Brazil's entire musical history and expands the
conversation to all Brazilian intellectual life, where Gil proclaims that "the
fundamentalists of property control" will not succeed b/c open information is
"part of the very process of civilization", and ends with Richard Stallman
dressed in a white robe and halo made of CDs declaring himself Saint IGNUcius of
the Church of Emacs... now THAT gives me shivers. =D This is the stuff that
makes my blood pump, and, in a roundabout way, is why a little group of us have
begun a party called Open Source, about which there will more propaganda
shortly.
