Open source â no question of quality

,----[ Quote ]
| There are two simple principles which drive the 
| potential for high quality in OSS. The first is 
| the fact that open source software generally 
| builds on the success of upstream projects. Second 
| is the impact testing has on the lifecycle, not to 
| be confused with the "many eyes" concept though it 
| is orthogonal.
| 
| [...]
| 
| Open source projects do extremely well to ensure 
| that quality is a rising element by using good, 
| sound software development practices - because 
| they have to.

Software Livre : OOo4Kids, um OpenOffice para crianÃas

,----[ Quote ]
| OOo4Kids, (pronuncia-se âOpenOffice for Kidsâ), Ã 
| um projeto em andamento, focado em crianÃas entre 
| 7 e 12 anos. Baseado no cÃdigo do OpenOffice.org, 
| mas bastante simplificado. Isto significa, que o 
| OpenOffice.org tem caracterÃsticas que o OOo4Kids 
| nÃo terÃ.
