Who uses Linux?
Let’s not talk about “Open Source” in this presentation:
– OS is settled
– It is used in companies al over the world
– It drives economy and the internet
– It is used on the server and desktop
O.k. let’s talk a little bit about Open Source:
– What can we learn from Open Source from the community and
interaction point of view
– What are the implications to modern business strategies?
– What are the implications for developing countries?

Software as Commodity?
Paradigm Shift in Software Development
The User?
How does OS fit in here?
– Open Source as Interaction Process
– Open Protocol as Enabling Technology

Software as Commodity?

I often used the phrase "the commodification of software" to
represent what I believe is the critical force behind the rise of
open source software. Broadly used software is now defined
primarily by its capacity for networked data exchange of
standardized commodity datatypes such as a web page, an MP3
file, a UNIX executable, or a Word document, rather than its
application model and user interface.

Is there “Commodified” Software?
Post-PC era (ubiquituous Software)
Standard-based approach for data exchange
Community driven processes/involvement
Communication driven Systems (Internet, mobile
phones)
Very similar concepts to Open Source process
Open Protocols are the enabling technologies for next-
generation of software
Software as commodity is also exchangeable (e.g.,
Firefox, IE),
Hence real competition can appear!

First Steps in Paradigm Shift
Producer / Consumer
Replaced by Interaction Models
What is Web 2.0?
– Data and
– Interaction drive
– Example?
• Digg it, del.icio.us, NewsVine, reddit, Simpy, Spurl, myYahoo, ...
Platforms and Processes instead of products!
– Example?
• EBay
• Second Life
• Video Game Platforms

Interoperability becomes key!
Interoperability occurs on various levels
Technical
– Webservices
– REST
– shared protocols
Development/Management
– Shared processes
– Distributed programming
– Best-practices
Sociological
– Globalisation
– Community driven Applications (see “Web 2.0”)
– Communication and “virtual worlds” (second life, ...)
