I saw this and thought readers of these newsgroups (if there are any
left!) might appreciate this announcement.


    "The Open Source Revolution: How Software Engineering Might Finally
    Grow Up"

    a lecture and webcast by

    Eric S. Raymond
    President, Open Source Initiative

    Thursday, March 14, 2002
    4:00 PM CST

    Duncan Hall McMurtry Auditorium
    Rice University, Houston, Texas

    Live webcast: http://www.rice.edu/webcast/

    A reception in Martel Hall will follow the talk.

    Eric S. Raymond is an observer-participant anthropologist in the
    Internet hacker culture. His research has helped explain the
    decentralized open-source model of software development that has
    proven so effective in the evolution of the Internet. His own
    software projects include one of the Internet's most widely-used
    email transport programs. Mr. Raymond is also a science fiction
    fan, a musician, an activist for the First and Second Amendments,
    and a martial artist with a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do. His home

Have fun.
