Open-source software (OSS) is computer software with its source code made available with a license in which the copyright holder provides the rights to study, change, and distribute the software to anyone and for any purpose. Open-source software may be developed in a collaborative public manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-source development.
The open-source model, or collaborative competition development from multiple independent sources, generates an increasingly more diverse scope of design perspective than any one company is capable of developing and sustaining long term. A report by the Standish Group (from 2008) states that adoption of open-source software models has resulted in savings of about $60 billion per year to consumers.
In 1997, Eric Raymond published The Cathedral and the Bazaar, a reflective analysis of the hacker community and free software principles. The paper received significant attention in early 1998, and was one factor in motivating Netscape Communications Corporation to release their popular Netscape Communicator Internet suite as free software. This source code subsequently became the basis behind SeaMonkey, Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird and KompoZer.
In production and development, open source as a development model promotes universal access via a free license to a product's design or blueprint, and universal redistribution of that design or blueprint, including subsequent improvements to it by anyone. Before the phrase open source became widely adopted, developers and producers used a variety of other terms. Open source gained hold with the rise of the Internet, and the attendant need for massive retooling of the computing source code. Opening the source code enabled a self-enhancing diversity of production models, communication paths, and interactive communities. The open-source software movement arose to clarify the environment that the new copyright, licensing, domain, and consumer issues created.
Generally, open source refers to a computer program in which the source code is available to the general public for use and/or modification from its original design. Open-source code is meant to be a collaborative effort, where programmers improve upon the source code and share the changes within the community. Typically this is not the case, and code is merely released to the public under some license. Others can then download, modify, and publish their version (fork) back to the community. Today you find more projects with forked versions than unified projects worked by large teams.

https://twitter.com/socialsquare http://www.socialsquare.dk/ (BIT BLUEPRINT mentioned in the video is now known as Socialsquare) Have you ever wondered - What is open source? We made this stop motion video in an attempt to explain it for anyone. This, simply to help scale the positive principles within the open source paradigm. The video itself is open for everyone to use, modify and share. So feel free to do that! We made this video to explain the idea of Open Source. We wanted it to be easy to understand - even for people with no prior knowledge of Open Source or Free Software. However, history is never simple. We can only urge people to do further research into the history and as such the development of open source. Kræn Hansen wrote this blogpost to explain our thoughts behind th...

Each of us defines success differently and makes decisions we think will move us in the right direction. Life events and exposure to different people and experiences shape who we are. For Brad, it's open-source software that has shaped many of his life philosophies. Whether you're a fellow engineer or a computer software novice, the life lessons of open-source software are applicable to us all. Brad Griffith is a life-long entrepreneur but thinks like an engineer. He grew up working for his dad's veterinary hospital, learning the joys and challenges of business ownership. Brad is now President of Buckeye Interactive, the web engineering and strategy team he started in 2009. Prior to starting Buckeye Interactive, Brad spent several years consulting and developing web applications in-house...
A Polytechnic School Ed Tech introduction to the Free and Open Source Software movement.
Here at XDA we love open source software. Not just because of its cost, though that doesn't hurt. There are many reasons open source software is great: security, quality, freedom, customizability and being able to see what the code does for yourself. These are the reasons we like open source software. But let's not be blind fanbois, there are - as the title says - problems with open source software. In today's video Jayce talks about the problems with open source software. He interviews Huw Collingbourne of RantsandRaves.co.uk to find out what he believes is the problem with open source software. Do you agree or disagee? Check out this video to see what he has to say.

Due to a growing trend of users using linux, using open source software and then spitting in the faces of the developers, the community as a whole, the open source ecosystem, how it works and what this side of the fence stands for in comparison to the proprietary Microsoft windows operating system and proprietary software world.... I think we need to take a step back, get educated, acknowledge and appreciate how this wonderful operating system and open source ecosystem came into existence. Many of us take the history for granted and make uninformed criticisms with the mind set of a paying Microsoft Windows customer wanting the SAME experience, SAME technical direction and vision with an ideology that is thankfully completely and utterly incompatible with this view. If you don't like it or...
Learn more about becoming a software engineer at http://www.fullstackacademy.com. Open source contributing is an major part of a software developer's identity, but getting started with open source can be difficult to navigate. Emily Stolfo, software engineer at MongoDB and adjunct professor at Columbia, joins us to talk about how developers can best contribute to open source. As the maintainer of the popular Ruby MongoDB driver, Emily knows about the other side of working on large open source projects -- how to make the maintainers' lives easier and help your contributions be accepted. The Fullstack Academy Speaker Series brings experienced software engineers on-campus to give students relevant professional insight.
"Speaker: Felix Crux Anyone who uses Open Source has run into software licenses. Too often, our understanding of this mess of legalese is incomplete, confused, or based on bad assumptions. But we can’t ignore them: licenses govern everything about how we use others’ code — and how they use ours. Come learn the basics of copyright, what different licenses let you do, and why & how you should choose one for your code!

This is a weird Free open source techniques but to be honest this save me so much time (hopefully it will save some one else too) Managing computer labs are not easy but if you have right tools to manage then this job is very easy. So I recently imaged a new lab with 2007 office on it but one of the teacher called me last night and asked me if I can put 2003 on all of the computers. Now if I didn't have these tools I would just hold my head and jump off the roof lol just jk . Here is what I did to deploy office 03 with out going to the lab physically.

This is a high-quality version of the BBC documentary on Free and Open Source Software. Although it is now slightly dated, it is still a good source of information for introducing people to the main ideas of Free Software. This version was created by me, Rogério Brito, from the original DVD (with content licensed as Creative Commons), but with the following changes in comparison with other copies floating around: 1. It was deinterlaced from a 25 fps source, which means that it is uploaded as a 50fps video. If YouTube offers you the option of watching the 50 fps version, you'll see a better quality documentary. The result may be even better than the original DVD. 2. I encoded the video with very high bitrate before uploading it, to preserve as much quality as possible/feasible. 3. The ...
Il film narra la storia del sistema operativo GNU/Linux, dalle sue origini al 2001, ponendo inoltre l'accento sulla differenza tra software libero e software open source e analizzando alcuni casi di programmi rilasciati sotto licenza libera (ad esempio Apache). Nel documentario non mancano le accuse contro la Microsoft e rivelazioni di protagonisti famosi. Nel corso del documentario vengono intervistati noti hacker ed imprenditori, tra cui Richard Stallman, Linus Torvalds, Eric Raymond, Bruce Perens, Michael Tiemann, Larry Augustin, Frank Hecker e Brian Behlendorf.
