21st Century Open Source manifesto

As technology continues to evolve, should there be a more effective organization than the company form to support the further development of the economy?

This new-type organization in the core of the physical assets, agricultural and industrial economy-dominated society is impossible to achieve success, and in the intangible assets gradually become the core, the knowledge-based economy as the leading information society will be possible. such as the rise of the domestic distributed database middleware product Mycat is not led by any one company to develop, but by the people spontaneously organized by those who love it by the unknown programmers co-development, and now the rapid development of the product's impact has gradually expanded.

There are many similar open source organizations and products at home and abroad, these open source products have unlimited potential, regardless of the development efficiency and quality are gradually beyond any company's products. This has also led some companies to try to curb the development of open-source products by means of acquisitions. So what do these open source products enthusiasts and contributors get? In the process of "selfless dedication" they acquired knowledge-the most valuable asset of the information society, they can use this knowledge in any form in exchange for immeasurable wealth, the new organization of the information society to achieve the "distribution according to work" has reached unprecedented fairness and justice.

The model of option encouragement, flat management and free working time adopted by enterprises is the improvement to the "top-down" of the company's production relations, so as to adapt to the high-speed development of the productive forces brought by the lasting technological progress. But the essence of the company: the pursuit of maximum shareholder benefits, so that it is impossible to achieve the true meaning of the central.

The new organization form of information society is a disruptive innovation to the original company's production relations "bottom-up", they will bring the rapid development of productivity. This organization is inherently open, shared, agile, and centralized, and so on, which can bring about high efficiency, and imagine that open source organizations with outstanding technology and efficient teams can create better products that surpass all companies.

"The natural effort of every individual to change his condition, when it has the freedom and security to exert, is a very strong principle that does not require the help of other, personal efforts, To bring wealth and prosperity to society "Adam Smith's words were the cries of small companies in the industrial revolution to monopolies with national franchises. Without the industrial revolution there was no need for modern companies to exist, and the rapid process of the industrial revolution could not occur without the existence and development of modern companies. History is always repeating itself, and the open source organization of the information society has given the modern corporate system a return of Adam Smith's words intact. It makes the knowledge economy no longer just a few capitalist games, but a chance for ordinary people to perform on stage. Technology is no longer high, but roots. Open source organization will become the engine that leads the progress of the information society, the next competition, see who can in the infinite digital world to better play the energy of Open source organization, a new era is coming.
