Open source software is ubiquitous. We fought for its acceptance, and we won. So, why doesn't it feel that way? Why does the win feel so hollow?
With many projects foregoing traditional open source licenses for "source-available" licenses, is open source dead? Are we in a post-open source era?
To find out how we got here, let's look back to the beginnings of the free software movement to discover what made it a movement and not a corporate strategy. We'll consider whether open source has exchanged its jeans and t-shirt in favor of khakis and blue, button-up shirt. More importantly, we'll examine whether this is a greater cultural phenomenon, what it means for the future of software development, and how we can save open source.
