A journalis, Cameron Laird, noticed the article and sent me a link to a sort of similar article -- aimed much more at the sciences -- that he published in 2002: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-oslab/?n-l-10242 E.g. it says "Related to this is a growing concern about the scientific propriety of reliance on commercial software. What does it mean that a certain result was achieved through use of a proprietary library? How does an academician document a discovery or conclusion when it rests on a black box whose details are trade secrets held by a third party?" -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
