See http://www.newsweek.com/nw-srv/printed/us/st/ty0103_1.htm if you don't
have a print copy. I wouldn't count on that URL working once a new print
edition hits the news stands, though.
PLUG is mentioned in the first few lines. Here's a copy of the first
paragraph:
Code Warriors
The grass-roots 'open source'
software movement is no longer
just a hacker cult. It could end up
challenging mighty Microsoft.
By Steven Levy
The owner of the suddenly tiny Cyber Loft cafi stopped counting at 70
people. "It's never been this crowded before," he said of the
pasty-skinned mass of keyboard-clicking humanity that braved bitter
temperatures to attend last Wednesday night's meeting of the
Philadelphia Linux Users Group. The attraction was Eric Raymond, a
flannel-shirted 40-year-old programmer who has emerged as the principal
philosopher of the "open source" movement, the hottest thing going in
software today biggest threat to Microsoft that's not on the government
payroll.
