What is "open source"? In reality, answering to this question is extremely complex, this concept is even a source of conflict in its interpretation. Usually associated with software. We could be at the dawn of a paradigm shift in the very meaning of this concept which could extend beyond software which could encompass various typologies of digital resources.
This will be a discussion about the idea of open source resources, this (open) resources where source files are provided to enable truly their modification (ex: odt/docx/latex files of a pdf). Open licenses provide the right to modify without the ability to do so, open source resources is probably the missing step in open science.
Come to this exchange to try to understand "open source" together!
Initiative related to a citizen research project on the meaning of this concept (https://open-source-undefined.org/).
