6 THE OPEN SOURCE WAY WHEN THE BEST IDEAS WIN, YOU CAN T LOSE. WHAT IS OPEN SOURCE? The term Open Source refers to something that can be modified and shared because its design is publicly accessible. While it originated in the context of computer software development, today the term open source designates a set of values what call the open source way. THE OPEN SOURCE WAY Every solution starts with sharing a problem. Technology thrives in the open, where people are free to share their ideas and build on the work of others. The open source way is about applying the principles of open source software development beyond software. Beyond technology. Is about sharing how the open source way can change our world in the same way the open source model has changed software. OPEN EXCHANGE We can learn more from each other when information is open. A free exchange of ideas is critical to creating an environment where people are allowed to learn and use existing information toward creating new ideas. PARTICIPATION When we are free to collaborate, we create. We can solve problems that no one person may be able to solve on their own. RAPID PROTOTYPING Rapid prototypes can lead to rapid failures, but that leads to better solutions found faster. When you re free to experiment, you can look at problems in new ways and look for answers in new places. You can learn by doing. MERITOCRACY In a meritocracy, the best ideas win. In a meritocracy, everyone has access to the same information. Successful work determines which projects rise and gather effort from the community. COMMUNITY Communities are formed around a common purpose. They bring together diverse ideas and share work. Together, a global community can create beyond the capabilities of any one individual. It multiplies effort and shares the work. Together, we can do more. THIS ISN T JUST A WAY OF DOING BUSINESS. IT S A MODEL FOR THE FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY. 6
