- What is Open Source?
-
I know there is a formal declaration but the emotional "my O/S is better" confuse the issue.
Is all the MS code obtained on the internet free source? Is Google, Office, Apple SDK type addins?
Does the "code" have to be coded? Can math/physics algorithms, ready to be coded, qualify as open source?
As noted I am aware of the formal statement but there is a much larger, but unwritten open source paradigm which many appear to know.
Or, as i believe, can open source be anything i can use and modify? - Posted by: bcarpent1228@... Posted on: 12/27/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
