Yesterday's Links (for August 1st 2007)

Possibly interesting links I saw yesterday.

• Open Source Initiative have approved the "CPAL" Adware licence - we can only hope that people ignore this recommendation. SugarCRM did so immediately; they moved to GPLv3 instead.
• Groklaw article on Microsoft and Open Source Initiative (not related to the adware issue).
• Article on Eben Moglen at OSCON, a well written article by Ashlee Vance about attempts to control what is said at and reported about a conference.
• no-word.el how to set Emacs up to filter MS Word documents through antiword so that you get a text version of the file (found on John Sullivan's blog post about this).
