28. Users expects market-ready offerings
i.e.: code complemented by: packaging services, training,
maintenance, support, etc.
Users want a full business proposal, not just
bare code.
Code is only a fraction of the
software value-chain that delivers
market-ready offerings

OPEN SOURCE HAS NOT INTRINSIC VALUE PER SE
Prepare the environment and build the ecosystem
Stimulate creativity
Help bring innovation into market
Deliver market-ready offerings
Measure, assess, and value the results
LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN!
We don’t need a prescriptive approach to innovation, from design to
release, but a pro-active approach in order to feed and stimulate the
proper digitalization of the world, providing everyone with new VALUE,
promoting PARTICIPATION by using our INFLUENCE.
We really need smart people, smart rules, smart education!
