I went back-and-forth with this issue with the proof-reader of my JHUP Rubik's cube book (which uses Sage ...). It is okay to use "open source" without hyphens since almost everyone does use the term without hyphens (hence it is standard) and the purpose of a hyphen is to avoid ambiguity. This being said by someone who knows next to nothing about English grammar, but the proof-reader was pretty amazing in her knowledge I thought. Anyway, I think it can use used either way in this case. > > Is it all right to use this image for other purposes? > > Cheers, > Marshall > > On Oct 23, 5:31 pm, Minh Nguyen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Craig Citro wrote: >> > This looks awesome.
