knowledge open software service definition bulgarian introduction the open software service definition defines open in relation to online software services an online service also known under the title of software as a service saas is a service provided by a software application running online and making its facilities available to users over the internet via an interface be that html presented by a web browser such as firefox via a web api or by any other means with an online service in contrast to a traditional software application users no longer need to possess own or license the software to use it instead they can simply interact via a standard client such as web browser and pay where they do pay for use of the service rather than for owning or licensing the application itself the definition an open software service is one whose data is open as defined by the open definition with the exception that where the data is personal in nature the data need only be made available to the user i e the owner of that account whose source code is free open source software that is available under a license in the osi or fsf approved list see note 3 made available to the users of the service notes the open definition requires technological openness thus for example the data shouldn t be restricted by technological means such as access control and should be available in an open format the open definition also requires that data should be accessible in some machine automatable manner e g through a standardized open api or via download from a standard specified location the osi approved list is available at https opensource org licenses and the fsf list is at https www gnu org philosophy license list html for an online service simply using an f oss licence is insufficient since the fact that users only interact with the service and never obtain the software renders many traditional f oss licences inoperative hence the need for the second requirement that the source code is made publicly available apis all apis associated with the service will be assumed to be open that is their form may be copied freely by others this would naturally follow from the fact that the code and data underlying any of the apis are open it is important that the service s code need only be made available to its users so as not to impose excessive obligations on providers of open software services acknowledgements this definition was originally drafted thanks on the open definition discussiong mailing list a variety of people contributed to that effort as well as subsequent improvements and amendments including in alphabetical order dave crossland francis irving thorsten glaser rufus pollock evan prodromu kragen sitaker luis villa open service web buttons if you re providing an online service that s compliant with the definition let people know by using an open service web button to add a button to your site just copy and paste the following bit of html into the relevant page on your site or into the general footer or sidebar a href https opendefinition org ossd img src https opendefinition org assets okfn org images ok_buttons os_80x15_blue png alt this is an open service a to use a different button other than the blue one used in the example just change the src attribute to point to one of the other buttons https opendefinition org assets okfn org images ok_buttons os_80x15_blue png https opendefinition org assets okfn org images ok_buttons os_80x15_red_green png https opendefinition org assets okfn org images ok_buttons os_80x15_orange_grey png applying the definition some examples to make clearer the import of the open software service definition we provide some illustrative examples openstreetmap open code the software that runs the main site is gplv2 data open google maps not open note that despite the fact that google maps provide an open api and that the service is currently available gratis for many uses it is not an open service in particular code the code for running google maps backend and frontend is currently proprietary data the data geodata etc used in google maps is currently proprietary subject to copyright and or database restrictions with no open license granted wikipedia open code mediawiki is currently f oss and is made available data content of wikipedia is available under an open licence kune cc open a collaboration website using kune as its engine the software kune is a descendant of the defunct google wave now available as apache wave code open and see faq data open faq notes we try to promote free contents through a cc by sa default license in projects which can be changed of course it appears the kune cc retains this default rizzoma com not open like kune cc a descendant of wave but closed maybe open in the fututre code site footer includes rizzoma is an open source project if you re interested in welcome to this topic or contact us via email protected but it appears the open source project is coming in the future rather than existing as of janaury 2013 data tos is very brief no apparent public license nor intent to be open background and history

to more recent summer 2007 discussions precipitated by activities at guadec 2007 see 1 2 3 4 we need an open service definition blog post on the okfn blog by francis irving which references a post on havoc pennington s blog evaluating a free open service definition rough draft posted by luis villa this ongoing thread on okfn discuss this includes comments from a variety of people including luis villa mike linksvayer rufus pollock francis irving and saul albert free open services definition draft discussion page this is a draft definition put together by luis villa and posted on the gnome
