Inserito il - 29/12/2010 : 07:59:4010. Open-Source Software Will See Unprecedented Growth
Open-sourcing interesting or unused tech is a trend we like to see from companies like Google (Google) and Facebook. In fact, we hope to see even more open-source contributions from proprietary software giants in 2011.
It’s not just the big players who are writing great open-source code. We know a lot of web startups are working on internal tools that’ll also be open-sourced in 2011. There are more youngsters (and not-so-youngsters) joining the ranks of hackers every year; many of them are being encouraged by sites like this one to make valuable contributions to the open-source community.
We predict more awesome open-source software than ever in 2011. Will it be a victory by Stallman’s standards? Probably not, as it won’t be exclusive of proprietary software creation, sale and licensing. But the trend toward more FOSS is a good one, and one that we’ll continue to report on in the year to come.
