Funny, but incorrect
From the November 12 “Kernel Panic”:
In fact, this strip is incorrect. I did not coin the term “open source”;
I only popularized it. It was coined by
my friend Christine Peterson of the Foresight Institute. While it’s true that I more or less ran the brainstorming session and fortunately had enough of a clue to recognize a winner when it popped up, the creative leap was all hers.
UPDATE: Yes, it now reads “popularized”. Chris Wright changed it.
