If there's one thing that our German friends do well, it's to anticipate great things to come! I once told a few friends of mine that being in the company of teary-eyed Germans is like being among prophets and seers! Yes, German people know when there's something which is worth their time to cry on, or make decisions on, and let alone celebrate! With this, the good
German government has expressed their sincerest support on building a foundation for their communities regarding open source design and development.
Those people high up in the ranks of their government have also stated that with open source design and development, the software industry would be able to produce more quality applications both for their own needs as well as for the entire planet's. With this, they plan on building technical facilities in which to develop their people's open source design and development skills. I think they see
digital information technology as something which could be manipulated for each purpose, and that the way to this customizability is open source design and development. This is mainly because with such a platform, people could fully customize an application regarding its security features, as well as its functionality. That is, keeping it open for all to modify, which would evidently make the programs more accessible, usable, and cost-effective!
