Finally, we would like to thank the Free Software/Open Source community  
for creating wonderful software and for fielding our questions,  
especially OpenOffice.org, ImageMagick, BioPerl, and the multitude of  
Linux groups.

One of the nice features of PLoS is that the copyright is retained by  
the author but the content is available for copying and redistributing  
in much the same way as FLOSS:
