  • A Framework for Open Source Projects
    A Framework for Open Source Projects Master Thesis in Computer Science submitted by Gregor J. Rothfuss [email protected] of Zurich, Switzerland Register No. 97-711-915 Supervisor: Prof. K. Bauknecht Department of Information Technology University of Zurich Zurich, November 12, 2002 Abstract The historical roots of Open Source are outlined. A comparison between Open Source projects and classical projects highlights strengths and weaknesses of both, and defines their attributes. Existing Open Source theories are evaluated, and the requirements for a framework for Open Source projects are determined. The framework introduces the notions of actors, roles, areas, processes and tools, and depicts their interrelationships in a matrix. Each aspect of the framework is then further developed to serve both as a conceptual foundation for Open Source and a help for organizing and managing Open Source projects. Die Geschichte von Open Source wird aufgezeigt. Ein Vergleich zwischen Open Source und klassischen Projekten beleuchtet Stärken und Schwächen beider Ansätze, und definiert deren Atribute. Existierende Open Source Theorien werden evaluiert, und die Anforderungen für ein Rahmenwerk über Open Source ermittelt. Das Rahmenwerk führt die Begriffe Akteur, Rolle, Bereich, Prozess und Werkzeug ein und illustriert deren Zusammenspiel in einer Matrix. Die einzelnen Aspekte des Rahmenwerks werden vertieft und dienen als konzeptuelle Grundlage für Open Source sowie helfen bei der Organisation und dem Management von Open Source Projekten. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Kurt Bauknecht, head of the “Information Management” research group at the Department of Information Technology at the University of Zurich who made this master thesis possible. I would like to thank for valuable discussions and suggestions Carl P.

  • How Do We Own Our Traditions? Conversation Guide for Facilitators
    ROSH HODESH: HOW DO WE OWN OUR TRADITIONS? CONVERSATION GUIDE FOR FACILITATORS Note for Facilitators: This document is designed to be the centering point for a group conversation. You should plan for the conversation to last between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on group size. Most parts are meant to be read by members of the group, so you should plan to ask participants to take turns reading sections. Alternatively, you can choose the first reader of a section, and then that reader chooses the next reader. Additional guidelines and suggestions for planning and leading a successful conversation can be found at the end of this guide. WELCOME Before we begin, we need to agree on a few things: • In order for our conversation to be as rich as it can be, we need everyone to feel safe to really share and really listen. Therefore, what is said in this conversation stays in this conversation, and may not be repeated outside it. • Our aim is to create a space where we can understand others and understand ourselves, not to give advice or to argue ideas of objective truth. With that in mind, in this conversation we will agree to speak in the first-person, about our own truth. • We will assume good faith in one another. • We will open ourselves to listen and learn from one another. • We won’t rush to fill the silence. Can we all agree to these things? If you feel, for whatever reason, that you cannot agree to these things, then please take this opportunity to exit.

  • Modernism, Jews, and Frazer
    bs_bs_banner Oceania, Vol. 85, Issue 3 (2015): 359–375 DOI:10.1002/ocea.5105 Commentary: Modernism, Jews, and Frazer Eric K. Silverman Wheelock College ABSTRACT The outstanding papers in this collection raise important points for not only a fuller understanding of the contemporary Pacific, but also for issues of identity and belonging much further afield. Specifically, I propose that we can approach these papers from a Jewish Studies perspective gazing upon Melanesia, but also from a Melanesianist perspective surveying the broad field of Jewish Studies. For in many respects, the case studies ask us to rethink conventional boundaries. Melanesians, I argue, draw variously on Israelite, Israeli, Biblical, and Jewish themes, all refracted through Christianity, to re-centre themselves in a global history so they are both valid and validated. But in so doing, we must ask ourselves, If Melanesians lay claim to Jewish affinities, broadly construed, what do these claims pose for Jewish identities as well as the very concept of identity in terms of notions of diaspora and centre? Indeed, if Melanesians are Jews, then how do we define not only Judaism but also Melanesia? My goal, then, is not so much to focus on the chapters as to use the chapters to probe fundamental questions about self and society in a globalised, mutable world. Keywords: Jews, Melanesians, identity, Sepik River, Papua New Guinea. In his mid-20th century modernist classic, Tristes Tropiques, Claude Levi-Strauss famously declared that he rarely tackled a new intellectual problem without first rereading a few pages of Karl Marx, either The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte or the A Critique of Political Economy.
