In March 1989 Tim Berners-Lee, a scientist working at CERN, submitted a proposal to develop a radical new way of linking and sharing information over the internet.
This new way of 'linking and sharing information' speaks to the heart of what many call the open source way and is emblematic of how open source communities operate and communicate. In turn, the Internet has influenced the growth and evolution of open source technology on many levels.
