Why Open Source?

Why we Established OSFP?

Why we established Open Source Foundation of Pakistan. Youth of our country is hardworking & brilliant minds but still we are struggling with lot of challenges. Access to Innovative Technologies is another challenge for this nation, we believe that by adopting Open Source Technologies in Pakistan we will have a great chance for everyone to get access to these innovative technologies which are being used in developed countries.

Term Open Source has three basic levels according to it's license "Freedom to use, Freedom to enhance and Freedom to redistribute because the source code is available to public" We believe it is intelligent move to learn Open Source for fulfilling national & International demands and reducing cost is also a big matter for our country.
