➢ Well organised➢ Several business models➢ User friendly ← written by users for users
➢ Cross-platform ← recompile source code
➢ High development pace ← reuse of best modules
➢ High quality ← peer review, reuse = survival of the fittest
➢ High security ← peer review, Unix origin, modular, encryption

The Cathedral and the Bazaarabout developers
1. Every good work of softwarestarts by scratching a developer's personal itch.
2. Good programmers know what to write.Great ones know what to rewrite (and reuse).

The Cathedral and the Bazaarabout users
6. Treating your users as co-developers is your least-hassle route to rapid code improvement and effective debugging.
7. Release early. Release often. And listen to your customers.
8. Given a large enough beta-tester and co-developer base, almost every problem will be characterized quickly and the fix obvious to someone.
11. The next best thing to having good ideas is recognizing good ideas from your users. Sometimes the latter is better.

The Cathedral and the Bazaarabout development
17. A security system is only as secure as its secret.Beware of pseudo-secrets.
18. To solve an interesting problem,start by finding a problem that is interesting to you.
19. Provided the development coordinatorhas a medium at least as good as the Internet,and knows how to lead without coercion,many heads are inevitably better than one.

Open Sourcebusiness models
➢ "Seven open source business strategies for competitive advantage", John Koenig, IT Manager's Journal, may 2004
➢ “Companies continue to waste their development dollars on software functionality that is otherwise free and available through Open Source. They persist in buying third-party proprietary platforms or creating their own proprietary development platforms that deliver marginal product differentiation and limited value to customers”

Total Cost of Ownership
➢ Free Software is about freedom, not price➢ In practice: zero cost acquisition
➢ Support is similar or cheaper because of competition➢ No license management / procurement needed➢ Cheaper hardware can be used➢ Less administration work➢ Bandwidth savings (local central update/software repository)➢ Training
➢ Usability tests➢ {MS Windows XP → Vista} = {MS Windows → Linux}➢ {MS Office 2003 → 2007} > {MS Office 2003 → OpenOffice}

Privacy and security?
➢ From the European Parliament investigation into the Echelon system (05/18/2001):
➢ “ensure that sensitive information is only transmitted via secure media....”
➢ “If security is to be taken seriously, only those operating systems should be used whose source code has been published and checked, since only then can it be determined with certainty what happens to the data.”

➢ (Peer) recognition➢ for teacher
➢ Whose course is referred to most?➢ Yours or the one one from your 'competitor'?
➢ for university/schools
