Fragments
Duplicates

One software
system CAN NOT
do it all

People think one
software system
can do it all
One software
system CAN NOT
do it all

Let all software
use a standard
method to
share data
Put data in a
neutral platform

19. Free the data to go where is it useful
Open standards
will let data to
be shared by all
Standards let
money be
shared by all
