From “View Source” to Open Source

If I may be so bold as to self-promote for a moment, an article I wrote appeared this month in AjaxWorld Magazine:  “From ‘View Source’ to Open Source.”

The basic point of the article is that the increasing leverage of formal, explicitly licensed Ajax libraries and frameworks represents a fundamental evolution from the old “view source and copy” culture in which I first learned JavaScript development.

Thanks to the sys-con folks for publishing it – hopefully we’ll see a whole series of articles over the next few months.
