For years, governments and customers have been insisting on open standards data formats, to ensure interoperability and re-use. Over the years, free & open source software (FOSS) has matured, from an occasional experiment to the dominant backbone of most Internet systems. These open, participatory development methods now are deeply embedded in the DNA of computing.  .  .

But are they complementary or competing? Some see them as different stages of evolution.  Is everything made out of code, today? Or is the relationship symbiotic? Many open source projects, like Mozilla. are built entirely upon open standards, like HTML, HTTP, _javascript_, etc. Many open standards, like OpenDocument, receive essential support from open source builds, like LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice. 

Join us as we speak with leading FOSS and standards experts on whether code has replaced formats, whether APIs have replaced standards, and what to make of all the new projects like OpenStack, OpenDaylight, OpenInterconnect and AllSeen. What is "open" going to mean in 2020?

Mark Collier is particularly drawn to the power of disruptive technology, from a computer on every desk (the 90s, when working at Dell) to every song in your pocket (the 2000's, when working at Yahoo! Music) to on demand supercomputing (the 2010s, when working at Rackspace Cloud and started OpenStack, with many others).  In 2012, Mark helped start the OpenStack Foundation and accepted the role of Chief Operating Officer to see how much disrupting could be done in 2013 with the free and open source cloud platform.  Read more...
