<br><br>Hello, everyone,<br>
<br>
Since we are talking about applying Alexander's theories in fields<br>
other than architecture/urbanism (which is great to see!)...<br>
<br>
I am exploring the ways in which this can be applied to the<br>
construction of software, and in particular to user interfaces. �I<br>
recently wrote an introductory chapter about this for a book about<br>
free software ("open source"), and gave a presentation at the 2011<br>
Desktop Summit in Berlin:<br>

Presentation - <a href="http://people.gnome.org/%7Efederico/docs/2011-Desktop-Summit/qwan/html/index.html" target="_blank">http://people.gnome.org/~federico/docs/2011-Desktop-Summit/qwan/html/index.html</a><br>
<br>
I'm happy to say that this presentation got a very good reception by<br>
my peers in the free software community. �Feel free to share it<br>
around; it is Creative-Commons licensed.<br>
