Is open source software freely developed and continuously improved by a large community of software developers?
Lorozco
Open source refers to code that is distributed outside of the manufacturer's company. Microsoft does not allow the code the programmers write for their programs outside of their company, so their code is proprietary, closed source.
OpenOffice allows their code to be used by others. The reason for this is so that others can make improvements and customized enhancements.
Open source is almost always free, where proprietary software has to be paid for, and is sometimes quite expensive.

Who invented forums?
I'd say the forum gods personally >chuckles< but on a more real note;There isn't anyone person who invented, or a better word developed.It has been developed and improved by many developers over the decades to what you see now as modern forums. Early web-based forums date back as far as 1996. But there were Usenet networks that were common from the late 1970s to the 1990s.So in a simple answer- not one person, but a bunch of developers over the ages.
