<BR>
It would be great to get you opinion on the following:<BR>
<BR>
I am looking at Free and open source and implementing this metaphor to a curatorial practice. What effect would this have on exhibiting artists? Would the audience benefit?<BR>
<BR>
Also anyone with an interest in Eric S. Raymond’s free software development model. I would like to know the following:<BR>
<BR>
1. What are your personal views about the ‘Cathedral’ and the ‘Bazaar’?<BR>
2. If you subscribe to one of these models how much of it applies to the whole of your life?<BR>
3. Do you jump from one to another to suit your needs?<BR>
4. Besides in a software engineering world, can the Cathedral and the Bazaar be seen any where else? or could it be applied to something else?<BR>
<BR>
I believe we need to get art out of its Cathedral – could this metaphor work?<BR>
<BR>
Many thanks <BR>
