         <dd>Open source software can be defined in many ways. For the purposes of these requirements it is defined as software that is openly developed and maintained by groups of interested developers. In these requirements, it is not required that open source software may only call other open source software. However, all open interfaces must be sufficiently defined that other open software may be developed to call those same interfaces.</dd>
