Free and Open Source Software
● Software with freely available source code that anyone can use, study, share, and modify
● Licenses under which the software is released define the rules under which the software can be used and modified, e.g.
– GPL – less permissive – changes have to be shared under the same license – used for GNOME
– BSD – more permissive – changes don't need to be shared, so code can be used in proprietary software – used for Android
