The Alien Engine & Apps will always be available as a free service at our public Alien Cloud's website. Personal Copies of the Alien Engine & Apps will also be available to everyone as Open Community Source.

What is Open Community Source?

A Open Community Source Project is like a group of people building a City. The task is very difficult, but the more people involved, the easier it is on everyone.

Building Software is the same as Constructing a House. A group of people with many different skills and experience need to work together in order to have success.

We believe in the power of the Individual, in Unity, with Organization. We believe each person should decide their level of involvement but that everyone should be involved in helping each other.

By Sharing in Open Community Source, You Will Be Rewarded

Each person chooses which ways they'd like to contribute to the community. By contributing in sharing in the: creation, promotion or helping answer questions you are rewarded with recognition attached to your name for your hard work and a recorded profile of achievements. Anyone who regularly is involved is what call a Pillar. If a person qualifies, by being a Pillar they may receive a Personal Copy of the Software with updates as long as they continue to be a Pillar.
