I find this video about the scientific evidence of what motivates
us is fairly relevant and on topic here because it makes positive
(though inaccurately understated) mention of Linux / FLOSS
 dominance in the world of information technology world and
goes a long way toward explaining why the GPL Open Source
Development model remains so hugely productive and
successful.

The amusing thing is this research proving that there isn't
a CEO or Banker or Wallstreet worm alive who is worth
even half the salary of any of their lowest paid employees
was funded by blood sucking corporapist elites to try to
justify the obscene, unwarranted. unearned and greedily
horded  loot they steal.

Makes me smile.

PS:
The MASS Collective, which sent me this link, is another
Atlanta area collaborative hacker, maker and research
space that should be coming on line at the end of the
Summer.  It is similar to Freeside, but with a slightly
different structure and a slightly broader vision for
releasing collaborative research and development
works under GPL and Creative Commons. More info
to come as details become available.
