How did its developers, collaborating online, beat both Microsoft and Netscape in this market? Salon's first big look at the subject explains the nature of "free software" and open access to source code -- and explores why this approach is gaining adherents, producing reliable and popular software and causing Microsoft and other software giants to take notice. (11/20/97) The little operating system that could By AndrewLeonardWhat is Linux, the flagship open-source operating system? Where did it come from, and how did it emerge as a cause? Can it really challenge Microsoft's dominance of the desktop operating system market? Our thorough feature lays out the Linux landscape for a nontechnical audience. (06/26/98) Let my software go! By Andrew LeonardThe free software approach received a major boost in spring 1998 when Netscape released the source code to its browser. The company said it was influenced by "The Cathedral and the Bazaar," an article by open-source advocate Eric Raymond. Our interview with Raymond covers the distinction between "open source" and "free software" and explores differences in the movement between pragmatists like Raymond, who are interested in persuading businesses to adopt their ideas, and idealists like free-software pioneer Richard Stallman, who embrace free software for primarily moral and ethical reasons. (04/14/98) The saint of free software By Andrew LeonardRichard Stallman invented the open licensing scheme under which free software has flourished. Now the unkempt, brilliant programmer suggests he's being written out of history. In our profile of Stallman, the Free Software Foundation founder argues that "the freedom to cooperate" is "more important than convenience and reliability" -- and, on a visit to the Stanford campus to check his e-mail, gives Bill Gates the finger. (08/31/98)PLUS: In a followup to this article, Eric Raymond and others respond to Stallman. (09/11/98) Microsoft's Halloween scare By Scott RosenbergIn a memo leaked to the Net on Halloween 1998, a Microsoft developer assessed the threat that open-source software poses to Windows -- and outlined a company strategy against Linux. Was Microsoft plotting to "copy and corrupt" free software standards -- or just building up the open-source challenge to strengthen its antitrust case? (11/04/98) The dumbing-down of programming By Ellen UllmanThe author of "Close to the Machine" installs Linux on one of her computers -- and realizes why so many engineers are embracing the joys of difficult computing. Ullman's two-part article considers why it's important for software developers to work closely with code -- and what they and we lose when their tools "protect" them from the inner workings of their products. (05/12/98)The joy of Perl By Andrew Leonard How a self-effacing programmer named Larry Wall invented a fuzzy, messy, free software language -- and how that language, Perl, came to be viewed as the hacker's best friend, and the indispensable duct tape, or glue, that holds the entire Web together. (10/13/98) You've got sendmail By Andrew LeonardEric Allman's free program sendmail makes sure your e-mail gets through. It helped make Internet e-mail the universal medium for electronic communication. Now it's going commercial. This piece examines sendmail's roots in the Berkeley hacker culture of the '70s and the implications of the new company's "hybrid" approach to free software development.

By Scott RosenbergWith open-source software satisfying the hands-on urges of hardcore geeks and easy-to-use "information appliances" beginning to satisfy the "just get me online" needs of the mass audience, where does Microsoft's Windows fit into the computing future? A "big picture" analysis. (11/19/98) The Transmeta enigma By Andrew Leonard At a tantalizingly elusive Silicon Valley start-up company that just happens to employ Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, secrecyspawns hopes of revolution -- and a raft of conspiracy theories. (05/22/98) Martin Luther, meet Linus Torvalds By ThomasScoville Linux and free software challenge the Microsoft papacy: historical parallels between the Reformation and today's software industry. (11/12/98) Geek central By Andrew LeonardHow a Web site called Slashdot became a teeming news and discussion community of "news for nerds" about open-source issues. (06/15/98) Free the Windows source code? By Scott Rosenberg An admittedly unlikely scenario -- but if Windows keeps getting more unwieldy and bug-ridden, sooner or later Microsoft may have to think the unthinkable. (04/22/98) PLUS: Talkin' 'bout a revolution: Readers talk back to the notion of free Windows source code. (05/27/98) Consider the source By Laura LemayA look at the public release of Netscape's browser source code explores why it causes geeks to swoon.
