rejon is Jon Phillips.

I nearly missed this if not for Jon Cruz tweeting it, but TuxRadar made a new podcast talking about Open Clip Art Library’s new interface. Let’s consider this, a press hit! Even though the new interface isn’t quite ready, the old one is working!

Thanks to michi, Open Clip Art Library is accepting uploads once more. Upload away! Michi and Bassel have some new things coming which will make hacking on Open Clip Art Library much easier.

Also, a big congratulations to Bassel for being promoted to admin! He is also now on the http://planet.openclipart.org and our news: http://planet.openclipart.org/news

Jono contacted me to review his book about community management, The Art of Community, awhile ago. You should buy it and read it no less than 3 times. The chapters are well split, and provide great examples that make this a classic of the scale of my other favorite book about Open Source, Karl Fogel’s Producing Open Source (How to Run a Successful Free Software Project). Jono’s book is now freed to be translated, transmitted, reformatted as long as one doesn’t make money off the work and does share back any changes since the book is now CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 licensed. Check it out!

Greg over at Creative Commons blog points out that: “The Art of Community isn’t just written for current or would-be community managers. It outlines and discusses all of the issues that are pertinent to simply working with a dispersed community of contributors.”

Honor the Jono by buying a copy! Honor the Jono and CC by translating the book and spreading the community love!
