Matthew Oates

Matthew Oates is a naturalist, writer and poet who has been obsessed by Britain's butterflies since he was at school. Intimately acquainted with all Britain's native species, he has conducted most of his research on the Pearl-bordered Fritillary, Mountain Ringlet and Duke of Burgundy; his experiences are summarised in his 2015 book, In Pursuit of Butterflies. But no butterfly has entranced him as much as the elusive Purple Emperor – a butterfly we now understand much better thanks to his detailed and tireless observations, captured in His Imperial Majesty (Bloomsbury, 2020). Matthew retired from his post as National Specialist on Nature with the National Trust in 2018, and dedicated his retirement to ensuring the future of his favourite butterfly. He writes regularly for The Times Nature Notebook column and in magazines, and lives on the Gloucestershire–Wiltshire border.

CHAPTER 1: The Basics

The world is increasingly becoming open-source. From the days when we had to rely on the product of proprietary businesses, we can now easily obtain products that can be molded to our specific needs without worrying about license issues and infringements.

However, when the average man thinks of the term open source, he would most likely think of it as a piece of free software that can be used according to one’s wishes. However, the term open source is now no longer limited to the intangible—an Italian company
