Filled with writings from the central players - from Linux creator Linus Torvalds to Perl creator Larry Wall - the book to convince readers of the great benefits of freeing many iterations of software source code. The open source movement has become a cause of Bre c in the light of the widespread adoption of Linux, Perl, and Apache as well as corporate support from Netscape, IBM, and Oracle -? And deeply felt opposition from Microsoft. Rather, it is a revolutionary call to release software development from the vested interests that label new directions in software development as a threat. This is not to say that open source code is an entirely egalitarian and communist efforts. To that end, Open Sources contains strong business profiles from entrepreneurs such as Apache's - and now, O'Reilly & Associates' - Brian Behlendorf, who discusses how to provide the software in order to attract customers in a special version. However, interspersed with tech talk is a reader-friendly guide for those interested in the future of software development.
