OW2 Tagline

Open Source Software for Information Systems

OW2 now hosts some one hundred open source projects spanning application platforms, components, middleware and tools for the development, deployment and management of distributed applications for corporate information systems.

We should add that software is not just about lines of code. It’s about people. Those who do the writing. Those who do the integration. Those who do the training. Those who do the maintenance. Those who run it. Open source software is also about sharing with people. Sharing expertise. Sharing experience. Sharing opportunities. Sharing the same commitment to technology excellence and user satisfaction.
