Abstract :
There´s much discussion about being open, with topics such as open source software, open innovation, open research, and open education. Will the whole world be open, and, if so, what was all closed in the past? The authors analyze the similarities and differences between the open movements they´ve been part of and come up with expectations for software´s future.
