Gostaria de anunciar o lançamento da ferramenta eScience, que é um software que tem por objetivo permitir a publicação dinâmica de de conteúdos ligados a pesquisa científica.
Seu desenvolvimento foi feito utilizando a linguagem PHP e o banco de dados Postgresql. Está sendo distribuído sob a licença GPL (GNU Public License)
Este produto foi desenvolvido pela equipe de software livre do Centro de Computação da Unicamp e mais informações (download, documentação, etc) podem ser obtidas no site do projeto

Um excelente artigo de um pediatra (!) sobre as similaridades entre a área de pesquisa biomédica e o fenômemo do Software Livre:

Os comentários sobre o artigo são também bastante interessantes, e o terceiro em particular sumariza muito bem toda a questão:
The analogy to biomed research works for a very simple reason, and one that MBA types need to pay attention to: Software development is not manufacturing, it's research. Any successful research effort depends on the collaboration and publication of results, it's the only effective way to ensure that the primary researcher didn't miss something important, and it's the only way to enable follow-on research that produces additional benefit. When they think of software development, far too many business types think it's a form of manufacturing, we write the code, and that's the product, this is a serious error. Code is a design, not a product, the binary is the product, and the compiler performs the actual manufacture. The software development process is the process of researching the solution to a problem, and documenting that solution in code. This is why FOSS works, not because it meets some ephemeral social need, and not because it breaks some perceived barrier, but because FOSS development recognizes, even if incidentally, that this is a research activity, and research always benefits from an open forum, the more open, the more benefit to the research.
