Freely available source code, with contributions from thousands of programmers around the world: this is the spirit of the software revolution known as Open Source. Now, in Open Sources, for the first time the leaders of Open Source come together to discuss the new vision of the software industry they have created. The essays in this volume offer insight into how the Open Source movement works, why it succeeds, and where it is going. - Back cover.
