Open Note to the Soros Foundation - a suggestion to the man and foundation: Negotiate a deal and if necessary buy the rights to the two volumes. Have "The Open Society and its Enemies" published on the Net in the same way that the "Open Sources" is published on the Net. I make no attempt to equate the "Open Society" and the Open Source movement, but do advocate the utility of such an action in furtherance of the objectives of the Open Society. Furthermore, if (legitimately) provided the texts in electronic form, we volunteer to create a professional html publication of those two texts on your behalf at no charge (together with cross-hyperlinked endnotes...). The positive irony is that there is a good possibility that it would increase sales of the paper publication as well! If anything happens with regard to the Net publication of this text, let us know.
