Viewpoint on Open Source
==Viewpoint on Open Source==
From listening to Dave’s presentation, I believe his viewpoint on open source to be that on the web it “should” be open. This is especially true when looking at the context of the audio content presented. People should be able to create sound without having platform dependencies, having to install anything, or even without needing to purchase expensive audio engineering software. Dave also stressed the whole learning aspect of open source. One can simply view the source of a page; take it as a starting point, and eventually build upon it. I feel you learn more by seeing then doing, rather then just seeing. This promotes getting engaged and learning; a very stark comparison vs. many closed source projects. It is impossible to look at any source code in proprietary closed source applications; therefore the learning aspect is non-existent.
