They are 2 different things, not compatible in nature.
However, you can have a project to have iOS, Windows, Linux, etc all running under your new open source operating system, then the answer may be yes.
Windows, from the other hand, never have open source in mind, so itself is definitely not going to have features compatible to open source. (if there is any, it is accidental, and Microsoft may take that away in the future)
What else can I help you with?
What you prefer open source software or proprietary software?
I prefer open source software.
What is the difference between open source and closed source software?
commercial software is made for profit. it is maintained by a company, and it's code is a trade secret, hidden, "closed source", because you can't see it (and therefore steal it) open source software is free to use. it is created not for profit, typically maintained by a community of individuals. its code is free for everyone to look at, modify, steal, etc. sometimes you will have trouble downloading open source software - make sure you download the "windows binaries" or "windows compile" and not the source code
Why you did the open source?
After using MS Windows for several years (not an experience I particularly enjoyed) I discovered Linux and open source, and so, after a period of trial and error, I was able to get rid of MS Windows and gratefully embrace open source. I found that there are too many advantages to open source, compared with Windows, that I will name only two. (1) I no longer had to spend considerable (wasted) time in updating security software, or Windows Update (which was always a very slow process). (2) I had more control over how I wanted my Ubuntu 12.04 operating system to look and work! After trying several distributions of free open source software, I have now settled on using Ubuntu for my five computers.

Is open source software freely developed and continuously improved by a large community of software developers?
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.
