= Open Source Summer School =

We believe that Open Source is more than an open model of developing software. We believe that Open Source is a way of spreading ideas, of building communities and providing education. Open Source is as much about the technology behind it as it is about the people taking part in the community projects and activities surrounding it. We value the benefits of Open Source, the freedom it offers, the tools it provides and the vast amount of knowledge and skills that may be grasp through a single click on the Internet.

In the Open Source Summer School we aim to use the Open Source development and community model to bridge the gap between passionate young students and the successful projects taking part in the collaborative environment provided by the Internet.
