>Subject: [Bioinformatics] Open Source Petition FAQ

As a note, this is the first draft of the FAQ and was
posted for comment on the Bioinformatics list hosted
at O'Reilly.  It was not meant to be widely distributed.
The views are currently those of the FAQ author rather
than of the petition signers or those involved in the
discussion (like me).

If you are interested in adding to the discussion,
please visit the main site for the petition at
  http://www.openinformatics.org/
and also read the discussion archives at
  http://labs.oreilly.com/mailman/listinfo/bioinformatics

Since my name was listed right at the top of Eugene's
forward, let me also add that I am against the petition,
for reasons outlined later on in the text.  That
description will be updated in the next version of
the FAQ to better explain my position.
