Open Source is a way of creating a new system by communal creation. The process is typified by public accessibility, transparency and lack of ownership.
The term was originally used in the context of software development to designate a specific approach to creating computer programs. Today, however, "open source" designates a broader set of values—what we call "the open source way." Open source projects, products, or initiatives embrace and celebrate principles of open exchange, collaborative participation, rapid prototyping, transparency, meritocracy, and community-oriented development.
