Absolutely enchanted by the Open Source community and the possibilites it offers to the Animal Rights movement, and actively working to implement its model in as many Animal Rights projects as possible.

I believe that the Open Source (behavioral) code holds the key to pull us in the Animal Rights movement out of the properiety-focused, all-rights-reserved focused, patent-focused (thanks but no thanks, I'm more into Creative Commons) behavior which make every organization so focused on its own (protected and reserved of course) projects just because they're its own (rather than focusing on what's effective, no matter who does it, even when everyone can do it and no right reserved), towards the fast, rapid advance that we need, just like it did for the Human Rights movement.
