</div>Your questions are hard to answer. Some already wrote extensive answers but<br>
are likely to miss huge parts of "it" anyway.<br>
You cannot "get" kultural or social movements by asking a few \
questions.<br> You have to be part of that movement for some time, listen to talks, \
visit<br> events ... after that, you will have some kind of a picture.<br>
<br>
Just yesterday I watched the GCDS keynote from Glyn Moody about sharing and<br>
why it is important (<a href="http://www.geeksoc.org/gcds/" \
target="_blank">http://www.geeksoc.org/gcds/</a>). I think what he said is<br> part \
of every free software developers heart. Yes, a part, there is much<br> more. For \
some Linus Torvald's "Have Fun" is the engine that drives them,<br> for \
others it's just a step to being a better programmer to earn more money<br> \
later, the "movement" doesn't care much about that ...<br> <br>
In the end it's not a direction that is followed by individuals; it's all<br>
about individuals that form a direction.<br>
