Check out the Creative Commons newsletter
The latest issue is all about Science Commons, and since some of the articles are republished from the SC blog, I’m even quoted in it (much to my surprise).
From John Wilbanks’ introduction:
One of the reasons I believe so deeply in the commons approach (by which i mean: contractually constructed regimes that tilt the field towards sharing and reuse, technological enablements that make public knowledge easy to find and use, and default policy rules that create incentives to share and reuse) is that I think it is one of the only non-miraculous ways to defeat complexity. If we can get more people working on individual issues — which are each alone not so complex — and the outputs of research snap together, and smart people can work on the compiled output as well — then it stands to reason that the odds of meaningful discoveries increase in spite of overall systemic complexity
The newsletter is a 37 page PDF, and you can download it here.
