As old media complains, some of leaders of the information age are finally starting to realize that another drastic change has occurred, and it's time to adapt…or prepare for the long, languishing walk into extinction.
Today is an open source era. Holding proprietary technology, data, information, etc. is counter-productive. Not allowing others to participate is pointless and a waste of capital. When all are allowed to participate, the resources of the globe are employed, and there is no stronger work force. The only way towards true progress is through collaboration, and this means allowing others to use what was previously viewed as proprietary. Open source is defined as "a set of principles and practices that promote access to the production and design process for various goods, products, resources and technical conclusions or advice."
