An interesting round-up of how open-source methodology is being applied by terrorist groups. And before you mentally damn FLOSS by that association, recall that there is nothing that is not at root good and no'thing' save God alone that cannot be co-opted to woe from weal. Note too:
"The irony in all of this is that these six elements would likely also apply to innovative, emergent efforts to counter guerilla/terrorist activity. This is what David Stephenson is talking about when he writes of 'smart mobs for homeland security' -- iterative, collaborative, tactics that remain open to novel uses of technology and systems. "
