Thanks Anthony (I have cross posted my reply/your email to the ACS FOSS 
SIG and ICT Governance Forum),

Extremely useful as I was mulling over and writing my own comments on 
most of the topics they have identified - I will be looking at it in 
more detail.

Putting the book into context of my experience in using

*Linux/Knoppix/Apache/Kino/FFMPEG/OGG plugin for Quicktime
see <http://www.ramin.com.au/linux/>

*a few engagements with the publishing world - including Australian 
Standards, thoughts offlink would be welcome as I represent the ACS on 
Standard Australia's IT Governance and Management committee

*replies to [LINK] FW: Cory Doctorow speaking at Popcorn Taxi on 
Wednesday night (FREE!)
