audio opensource_audio At Penguicon 5.0 in 2007, Christine Peterson, Jason Ahlquist, Karl Schroeder, and Ron Hale-Evans discuss the term 'posthuman'. The term ‘posthuman’ seems to indicate a lack of humans. This is not what is meant, but it’s really bad marketing, and scares people. Even transhumanism is not a very friendly term. Names are important; perhaps it needs a new name the same way Free Software came to be known as Open Source Software?
