"What is Open Source?"

March 6th, 2006 by Hen

That was the question in a survey I recently took. Here’s my answer:

Open Source: A meritocratic, public, community driven development
culture in which the source happens to be available.

open source: Getting a piece of software for free in which there
is a vague promise that the accompanying source code is vaguely
useful, and that the software will remain free - depending on
the developers.
