Open Source Entrepreneurship

Great list of resources.<p>It would be great if someone ranked the listed tools somehow by references on HN, StackOverflow, etc, linked to posts/comments/questions according to votes. So much great information flows through HN but it's hard to random-access that information easily when making design decisions.

While I offer no judgement here on the merits of Steve Blank's model, the first few chapters of the book that made him famous are here:<p><a href="http://www.stanford.edu/group/e145/cgi-bin/winter/drupal/upload/handouts/Four_Steps.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.stanford.edu/group/e145/cgi-bin/winter/drupal/upl...</a>

I'd hardly call a list of links and webpages "open source entrepreneurship."<p>Open source entrepreneurship would be creating a capitalistic enterprise in which anyone can freely participate, and whose participants can modify its practices for his/her own use, with an end goal of monetary profit. Something like:<p>-- a pool of capital from which anyone can borrow for entrepreneurial purposes and pay back with zero or minimal interest.<p>-- an enterprise with a stated function or goal that anyone can join and from which anyone can profit.<p>This is just a collection of links with a sexy header.<p>An interesting question would be: can you open-source entrepreneurship and retain the core principles of both?

The "Legal Wiki" linked in the legal section is sadly dead but Florian Fader re-uploaded most of the documents on Docracy (that also hosts pretty much all the free funding documents available)

Trying to sell his books. I don't see any added value in his list.
