The document discusses open innovation and open source software. Open innovation involves using innovations created by others through processes, products, or knowledge. It is characterized by purposeful knowledge inflows and outflows, organic growth of innovation, and reliance on outside innovators. Open source software development is a form of open innovation where the intellectual property is openly available and projects involve collaboration. However, open innovation does not always involve making internal components openly available as with systems like IBM PCs.

5. Open Innovation in Open Source Software IP Philosophy – Open and available to all Production via collaboration Corporate Participation (Sun, Microsoft, IBM)‏

6. Open Source as Open Innovation Open source software developments open to all say in a sf.net hosted project Pooled/Joint R&D – Linux and Mozilla Spinouts – Mozilla from Netscape, Eclipse from IBM Selling Components – Apache, KDE Donated Complements – Avalanche, PC Game “Mods” (Make money by core innovation but seek complements by donated development)‏

7. Open Innovators in Open Source Software Development Planners or Managers Architects Code writers Bug fixers Testers Enhancement requestors (users/customers)‏ Customers (Automated Test Data thru Internet)

8. Open Source NOT Open Innovation Non-participation of the founders with future developers of the same open source Thousands of Open Source Software Projects developed by few software developers Mozilla abandoned by AOL/Netscape Several Xerox Palo Alto Spin-offs

9. Open Innovation NOT Open Source Innovation is open to all but Internal components and their workings are NOT open source IBM PC with Windows and Intel and other components
