I want to learn to be an open source software programmer. Where should I begin my study? I figure I need to know the most used languages, platforms, etc. and what the industry standards are. Thanks!
This is a totally incredible video that demonstrates the capabilities of SixthSense Technology.
Please see PART 1 of this video first – www.youtube.com At TED India, Pranav Mistry demos several tools that help the physical world interact with the world of data – including a deep look at his SixthSense device and a new, paradigm-shifting paper “laptop.” In an onstage Q&A, Mistry says he’ll open-source the software behind SixthSense, to open its possibilities to all.

Open source software continues to increase at a rapid rate throughout the globe. What political forces are influencing this growth and how are they affecting Microsoft’s dominance in operating systems?
If there is a gap in the open source software world for a particular application/system, is it generally possible to find companies/public organisations to help fund the creation of that project if someone is willing to coordinate / manage the project? Does anyone have any examples of projects initiated in this way? I’m thinking of a scale of project larger than a Google summer of code.
I am a self employed person in Tunisia. I run a small cafe under my house. Is there any free open source software to keep track of orders and payments? If that is open source I can probably change better way to fit my need.
I really like using open source software (OSS). However, often times there are no binaries, precompiled installation programs or the executable program itself. Instead the sources, the files that contain the module files or the source codes, are provided with a few files called "make files". How do I use a "make file" or compile the source codes for OSS?
I am new to the tech industry (I am in the legal department) and am wondering from a practical standpoint why a software developer would develop open source software. Any thoughts?
I’m drafting an agreement with a client that wanted us to develop a software on top of a Open Source software. Meaning, we will develop new modules on the existing open source software.
How would the IP Rights clause in the agreement sounds like?
