Here is an interesting idea to do with open-sourcing things which are not computer programs. Is this really as revolutionary as they say? What exactly is the difference between re-writing an article and just commenting on it? Can you even apply the idea of open-source software to anything else? If you improve on a piece of software, that's one thing because people can use it and learn from it, but what is the point of improving on things like essays?

This appears to be some kind of computer joke.

N. I liked it, it was about food, and was pretty funny too, I was reading it for a fair old while, which in these days of shortening attention span is a wonder in itself.
