Free and Open-Source software
● Software based on license models that stress collaboration and are designed to encourage broad use
● Grant rights to use, modify and redistribute
● Source code availability
● Open-Source licenses families
● (A)GPL (Strong Copyleft): derivative work shall be distributed under the same license
● Prevents hijacking of developer’s effort
● LGPL: doesn’t require anything from the code that it links with● Enables widespread use of technology
● BSD and BSD-Like (Apache, MPL, EPL) : enables to use it for whatever purpose● Grants right for commercial use

Interoperability & standards as drivers for Open Source
● Interoperability
● An open-source solution takes its strength from combination with other open or closed source solutions
● Community development● Modular architecture
● Extensible and flexible solution
● Lack of interoperability is not an accident● Interest for software editors that promote vendor lock-in
● Open Standards
● An open standard is accessible to everyone free of charge with no restriction and documented in all its details
● Open-source implementations of open-standards are critical for Information Society● The availability of the source code promotes open and democratic debate around the
standard specifications they intend to implement
● Allows validation (test-case)
● Produces stability (key for business)
● Increases dissemination

Open-Source at the heart of innovation
● Main IT technology trends massively use open-source technologies
● Research needs high investments and results should be available quickly (“time to market”)
● Open Innovation – ODOSOS spirit (Open Data, Open Source, Open Standards) is largely used

Conclusion: Open-source value for public research dissemination
● Open-source is a facilitator for public research dissemination
● Allows researcher to go on using and contributing to software results after the end of the project
● Community is key for sustainability
● Protects and facilitates broad usage of public investment
● Necessity for European Research Investors to promote widely known Open-Source repository
● Such as OW2
