OPEN SOURCE

@luismalamoc

Before all…

What isSoftware?

The software is to computers what mind is to human body.

The software is written in source code files using any programming language.

Perfect…

What exactly isOpen Source?

Means free

Means open

Means software for everyone.

Why?

Because people cooperate.

Because people collaborate.

Because people communicate.

And because…

People share what they know.

The idea of giving free software on the internet

may seem ridiculous

stupid

and crazy

But there it is…

6 things about open source that are worth remembering.

1.) Software from open source may be sold or freely given away.

2.) Can have access to the source codes of the software.

3.) Any revision of the codes is permissible.

4.) No one is excluded from the open source resources.

5.) As long as the rights apply to everyone who use the program(s).

6.) Keep it free and clean without finding a loophole or forcing other users to agree with you.

With open source, you are

not afraid of bringing it around

not afraid of using it

not afraid of empowering it

because YOU can bring it

because YOU can use it

because YOU can empower it.

Without open source,

there wouldn’t be OpenOffice.org

An office suit

no JavaA programming language

no Firefox, andWeb browser

no Linux.An operating system that, today, comes with many different flavours and is used into servers, desktops, smartphones, tablets and others.

A world without open source

is a world without freedom.

Support Open Source.

Support your freedom.

Thanks for your

attention@luismala
