Welcoming speech at the Open Source Workshop during CODI IV by Aida Opoku-Mensah, OIC of DISD at The Fourth Meeting of the Committee on Development Information (CODI). The open source software is attracting a lot of attention not just in the computing community, but also in the media, academia and, political arena. In many countries there are political initiatives trying to get public support for Open Source software, e.g. by paying direct subsidies to open source projects, by standardizing open source software development activities in government agencies, or by requiring schools and universities to replace proprietary software by open source software whenever this was possible.
