Opening new doors with Open Source

,----[ Quote ]
| The Open Source development model operates mostly under the GNU General 
| Public License (GPL). Often referred to as “copy-left’’ as opposed to 
| copyright, software covered by the GNU GPL is available free of charge to the 
| general public. Developers have access to the complete source code, making it 
| easier to build customised solutions. If a programmer modifies software  
| covered by the GNU GPL, then those modifications must also be made freely 
| available.
