The open-source-software movement is a movement that supports the use of open-source licenses for some or all software, as part of the broader notion of open collaboration. The open-source movement was started to spread the concept/idea of open-source software.
Programmers who support the open-source-movement philosophy contribute to the open-source community by voluntarily writing and exchanging programming code for software development. The term "open source" requires that no one can discriminate against a group in not sharing the edited code or hinder others from editing their already-edited work. This approach to software development allows anyone to obtain and modify open-source code. These modifications are distributed back to the developers within the open-source community of people who are working with the software. In this way, the identities of all individuals participating in code modification are disclosed and the transformation of the code is documented over time. This method makes it difficult to establish ownership of a particular bit of code but is in keeping with the open-source-movement philosophy. These goals promote the production of high-quality programs as well as working cooperatively with other similarly-minded people to improve open-source technology.
The label "open source" was created and adopted by a group of people in the free software movement at a strategy session held at Palo Alto, California, in reaction to Netscape's January 1998 announcement of a source-code release for Navigator. One of the reasons behind using the term was that "the advantage of using the term open source is that the business world usually tries to keep free technologies from being installed." Those people who adopted the term used the opportunity before the release of Navigator's source code to free themselves of the ideological and confrontational connotations of the term "free software". Later in February 1998, Bruce Perens and Eric S.

Open source is source code that is made freely available for possible modification and redistribution. Products include permission to use the source code, design documents, or content of the product. The open-source model is a decentralized software development model that encourages open collaboration. A main principle of open-source software development is peer production, with products such as source code, blueprints, and documentation freely available to the public.
Open Source Initiative est une organisation dévouée à la promotion des logiciels open source. Elle a été créée en 1998 à Palo Alto par Todd Anderson, Chris Peterson, John « maddog » Hall, Larry Augustin, Sam Ockman et Michael Tiemann sous l'impulsion de Bruce Perens et Eric S. Raymond. Né en 1998 d'une scission de la communauté du logiciel libre (communauté d'utilisateurs et de développeurs) afin de conduire une politique jugée plus adaptée aux réalités économiques et techniques, le mouvement open source défend la liberté d'accéder aux sources des programmes qu'ils utilisent afin d'aboutir à une économie du logiciel dépendant de la seule vente de prestations et non plus de celle de licences d'utilisation.
L'Open Source Definition (« définition de lopen source ») détermine les conditions nécessaires pour qu'une licence soit considérée comme open source aux yeux de l'Open Source Initiative. Elle est publiée sur le site de l'OSI avec une liste de licences approuvées''. La définition est reprise du texte des principes du logiciel libre selon Debian, écrits et adaptés principalement par Bruce Perens avec des contributions des développeurs de Debian. Le document est créé 9 mois avant la création de l'Open Source Initiative.
