What Open Source shares with Science
,----[ Quote ]
| One of the overlooked advantages that Open Source development affords, is
| that it imitates perhaps the most fruitful and beneficial of all human
| endeavours: Science. How has the scientific-method evolved, and what can it
| teach us about the future possibilities of software construction?
|
| Science, in its clearly understood modern guise, is unique. This essentially
| Western tradition of open inquiry is believed to have developed only one
| instantiation throughout the whole period of human history. While almost all
| human societies have developed language, art, and music, open inquiry into
| the natural and philosophical world sprung only from the eastern rim of the
| Mediterranean sea, in a number of ancient Greek states, approximately 27
| centuries ago.
