Open - Standards, Source, Content, Services and Culture - Do you know the difference? [www.archimuse.com]

We have an open source product for museum class registration we developed for the Museum of Science so I followed a link to an article on What Does Openness Mean To The Museum Community?  What I found was a very clear discussion of different forms of openness:

  • Open Standards
  • Open Source
  • Open Content
  • Open Services
  • Open Culture
They discuss the complexities and how they interact.  You don't need to be a museum to find this an excellent resource!
